I'll always run Pillage over this in Classic/Legacy, but this does have something going for it: it's splashable, and it can be played in modern, where Pillage cannot.

Additional gravy for my Wolf-Run-Ramp-Hate deck. Not exactly Stone Rain, but what the hey...

Jesus Christ finally... it's no Pillage of course but mono red needs and deserves this effect in std.

edit: what I mean is red deserves a versatile "removal" spell even if it's overcosted. This is red's Naturalize.

Could Land Destruction resurface in standard? Look at ghost quarter....

Now if only they'd re-print pillage. :/

I'm honestly not sure why this card gets so much hate. It's actually fairly useful for a late draft pick -- it can be boarded in to kill a color splash OR an artifact, and gets that versatility for only one more mana than the beloved Stone Rain. It's also more splashable than Pillage and Aftershock, though the latter also kills creatures that are too big to burn out. But in my cube there really aren't that many huge creatures anyway, so I'm content to run Demolish for now.

And this is the version I run because that art is frickin' SWEET.

Seriously, Wizards? I know you're afraid of land destruction, but you printed Cavern of Souls. As a control player, having this be our best answer is legitimately depressing.

Best art on old card. CMC is too expensive to mainboard, though.

@lorendorky
What are you talking about? This was just out in Zendikar. That was all of two blocks ago.

This card is better now than it was in Zendikar because people won't be pulling crazy lands trying to trigger landfall, but I still think it'll be rated lower than it's previous printing. Red is getting a little bit of love in this block and this card just looks crummy in comparison.
