My friend played me with his Standard legal deck and cracked a Misty Rainforest to find that the only 2 Islands in the deck were all ready in play! His response, "thought I had 3 islands in this deck."
I should see how well his deck fairs against one of these with it's 24 non-basic lands.

Fighteningly good - no idea how it ended up in this set.

A good Homelands card? I... I don't know what to believe in anymore... Is this reason to sideboard Apocalypse Chime?

At the time this was printed, it was reasonably harmless, you know?
The original duals were gone, the Ice Age pain lands were being played but there was not that much need for them, etc.
Placed into today's environment, this card is just downright evil. One of the few Homelands cards that have aged really well.

HOMELANDS IN NOT THE WORST SET. ANYMORE. There, I said it. Now, proof.
Sengir Autocrat With the massive amount of bounce effects and ways to sacrifice, this is now a power house(Hello, Mr. Venser, The Sojourner). Four please.
Broken Visage: A Splashable black card that simultaneously kills an attacking creature, creates a Shadow token of equal p/t(read the rulings!) Again, FOUR PLEASE.
Wall Of Kelp: With the advent of defender decks, anything that puts out walls w/o taking card slots is ingenious, mandatory. Four of those, too.
And of course, Baron Sengir 'Nuff said 'bout dat fool.
My vote is for Odyssey or Apocalypse(controversial I know, redditors).

I always knew Fallen Empires was worse than Homelands

An oddly completely devastating card from Homelands, modern Magic's reliance on nonbasics makes this quite powerful. Also, a card that will get tons of damage out in multiplayer games. The only thing that takes it down a few notches is that it's symmetrical, and punishes yourself too.

There are a few playable cards in Homelands, this is one of them.

Leeches. Still the only cure for poison.
Rysorian Badger: Splashable 2/2 That Night Soils creatures for 1 life apiece? Four, please.
