Motherf....

The Oracle has completely ruined this card!!! That is NOT what the original version states!!

With the original, you could play it on an opponents land and tap it to also give one of your critters a boost. I'm unsure at the moment if said opponent you react by activating a mana ability... That does not use the stack, on the other hand, even the old version has the tapping of the land as a cost ("0: Do this to do that" is the same as "Do this: do that") which one should not be able to prevent.

Anyway, the new oracle wording giving the land this ability totally messes it up. It's not like this was an ultra-powerful card which had to be errata's to be toned down, you know...

@Lord_of_Tresserhorn
It also changes the fact that this can now target Pro-Green creatures since the land is the source of the ability now (unless it is Dryad Arbor or something).
