i like the idea of land destruction on your opponent and then taking their land for yourself- very manifest destiny

There's already another card like this, but it takes less mana: Mwonvuli Acid-Moss Legal in extended, too.

Why did you start playing magic if you're unable to read properly EnfEnEt? Mwonvuli Acid-Moss can just search for a forest and this card here for any basic land.
Spiritual Asylum and Radiate and this....and gobs of mana...I should mention I always try to play with two mana flares. It's awesome.

@ Buderus, Yes their are better ways to get more land and destroy land but can those cards do both at the same time? no. The name of this card spelled c-a-r-d-a-d-v-a-n-t-a-g-e. Mwonvuli Acid-Moss is the exception to this.
in a decent mana ramp deck this will kill your opponents tempo on turn 3 easy and add to your mana ramp

Meh. The land destruction won't have an impact in most cases and ramp on turn five is too slow.

Costs one too much. I mean, blue does it better even. Annex? This color combination should have no problem doing this for three mana, but then it would be aggressively playable in a lot of formats. Actually, yea. Three mana. Vindicate and Recoil are allowed to be that good, cut red/green a break.

For the Casual Player: Forest, Tinder Wall, Manamorphose, Pyretic Ritual, Seething Song, This puppy right here.
1st round you get two lands and your opponent starts from scratch.

Add to the small pile of cards that do this: Reap and Sow. Costs one more mana if you want both effects, but has the rather crazy upswing of letting you put any land out.

Orcish Lumberjack, Mwonvuli Acid-Moss, this, Tinder wall, and reap and sow: Dominate an opponent via land destruction on TURN 2 while maintaining card neutrality. Further... you can do this several times while waiting to ramp into a 5-mana fatty.
Beat face mercilessly.

It's not bad in Commander I think. There are many powerful lands played there, so that LD on turn 5 onwards is still useful. Fetching a land, regarding the slow pace of that format, also still makes sense, stabilizing your mana base a bit more and filtering the library a tiny bit.
