This card is overpriced. Why would you need more than four Wildfires in your deck?

It's not Wildfire
Wildfire made each player sacrifice land. This destroys it.
Wildfire affected every player, this is only one target other player.
normally this doesn't matter, but if you're playing a group game or your opponent has Darksteel Citadels then this is strictly worse.

This WAS wildfire before 2009. >:( One good time to put more than four wildfires in your deck is when resolving wildfire wins you the game.

@SilverSkyz:
Indestructible lands can't be chosen for destruction. So sayeth the almighty rulings!

Also, I like how this was printed despite Wildfire having been printed in Portal Second Age.

@SilverSkyz: ...or you yourself could play with Darksteel Citadels or Darksteel Garrisons, so I don't see how this is worse.
