More than Shatterstorm, Armageddon and Wrath of God together: with Armageddon an eventual animated land with regeneration could be regenerated, but not with Jokulhaups!
And... Can I say that I like this artwork a lot?

The correct spelling is Jökulhlaup. It is an Icelandic word which describes the outburst flood of a usually subglacial lake produced by the eruption of volcanoes under ice sheets, like Vatnajökull.

Therefore, both artwork and flavor text are spot-on. :)

Also, a magnificent card. Almost total reset.

I used to be the kind of guy who plays to win in my play group.
Then I became a Johnny.
Those were the days that I used to play magic almost everyday.
Now it's a "rare occasion" that I play magic.
From now on I think I'm just gonna use cards like these, Upheaval, Wildfire, Dimensional Breach and stuff to make for fun and memorable games.

I pulled this from an Ice Age starter deck, and boy was I excited. This notably does not destroy enchantments or planeswalkers, which can make threats that survive it quite nasty. Think things like Opal Titan, or Sneak Attack.

Burning down the 'Haups..."

The Talking Heads knew how awesome this card is.
