Also good for the old Depletion Lands! Those will die eventually while giving you temporary ramp. You occasionally get screwed with them if the game goes on to long and you miss land drops. This helps keep your deck solid next to HIckory woodlot and whatever other colors you're using.
As mentioned, absolutely boss next to cycling lands.
Also very good next to man-lands for recurrable blockers. Stall that game til you can end it :)
@Timmy
Aside from:
Fetchlands
Cycling Lands (2 cycles of those have been printed btw)
Manlands and Zoetic Cavern
Depletion Lands
Lands that sac for additional mana
Opponents using Wasteland
The fact the card has *dredge* right on it; means probably 1-2 lands per turn going to the grave. Having this in your starting hand in a non-abusive dredge deck = perfect mana-drops the rest of the game. with ~1 casting. Which is amazing.
This also works in land's edge combos, over-fil... (see all)

@TimmyForever : Life from the Loam + Seismic Assault for a cheap, stupid and efficient winning condition.

Another cornerstone Dredge card. This thing can fuel some sick plays if you do it right. Also digging the new watermark!

Really, i think that since this a very specific set of cards for each guild (each card was either chosen for izzet, or for golgari) each card should have been watermarked... It would have been a neat flavor addition i believe. I do like that they used the updated watermarks as well, differentiating these cards from their original printings (along with the set symbol of course)

This is one of those cards that gets better the more money your deck costs.

This + Isochron Scepter + Knight of the Reliquary = All lands get pulled out of your deck.
