Luckily, it's compatible with several other cards blue has to offer, like Propaganda. At some point, your opponent will have to choose whether he wants to have enough mana to attack, hence sacrificing most of his creatures and preserving the lands, or sacrificing his lands to preserve the creatures as he attempts to get rid of Propaganda with enchantment removal. Either way, you achieve card advantage, but keep in mind this also affects creatures that you control. Therefore, you must either have creatures (or other permanents like Hatching Plans) with positive move-to-graveyard effect or run few to no creatures at all.
3.5/5, as it can backfire or fizzle at times.

Potentially hilarious after Razia's Purification.

So, your white weenie opponent is sitting there with a self-satisfied smile after dropping his third little hyper-efficient killer on turn 2? (Hada Freeblade,Champion of the Parish, Akrasan Squire) Wipe that smile off his face by dropping your third land and playing this! Against weenie/beatdown, this can be practically Time Walk-like in terms of giving you board/development advantage!
As usual, scumbling is wrong about a card!

Beautiful card for control. You already have them paying mana or tapped out for other reasons. Add this guy and all the sudden you have opponents losing their ability to function or their ability to attack *at all*.
Propaganda, Pendrell MIsts, et all are great ways to ensure you're destroying several creatures, or keeping them from attacking. Add Rystic Study and you're guaranteeing card draw. Add Sphere of Resistance and similar and enemies are stuck in a slow grind against whatever your win cons are.

Incredible card, especially for multiplayer. Results in one-sided Wraths, once an opponent is tapped out.
