Lands like these are an obvious trade-off, and whether or not it is useful for you should be determined by your personal play preferences.
But there's one problem: they're non-basic, which is almost always a liability, and limits synergy with other cards. Yet you could also argue that they prevent landwalk, so... Whatever. Take it if you like it.

Wha? it comes into play tapped!
Mox Emerald, Forest, that'll get you a 1st turn Channel.

@Pontiac Elvish Spirit Guide + Forest = a much less pricey turn one channel.
Also, I'd prefer Elvish Spirit Guide to this the majority of the time, unless I'm running land recursion or something.
