The land alternating ability might be useful in some cases, e.g. along with Zombie Master, but getting removed from the game is rather a drawback, also because there are a bunch of tribal zombie card that could make use of zombies in the graveyard like Lord of the Undead or Soulless One.

I think he fits better in some kind of oldschool swampwalk deck with Bog Wraith, Filth and such guys.
He can act as Tainted Well (which I prefer to Evil Presence because of the cantrip) numbers 5 to 8. The upside is that his effect can't be Naturalized.

I love when old cards are referenced! The "tomb-eye" seen in the art is Cyclopean Tomb

There's something very queer about this being a "Creature-Zombie Giant" rather than "Creature-Cyclops Giant".

Much more playable version of Cyclopean Mummy!

With the advent of the Eldrazi, this guy no longer has the title of Best Creature Revived From A Eye Based Prison(Eye of Ugin).

Each Time Spiral card was an homage to at least one previously printed card.

This card is referencing Cyclopean Mummy and Cyclopean Tomb. Its a Giant because its twice as big and twice as expensive!
