In my opinion, significantly worse then stone rain.

Do you expect it to cost the same AND have the cycling ability? It's more flexible, so it costs one more. The difference between 3 mana and 4 mana is scant in terms of tempo (unlike the difference between 4 and 5). If you're going the land destruction route, why not have 4 of these and 4 Stone Rains?

Land destruction is always relevant. It's not the type of ability you're going to wait for. The earlier the better, and when possible, if possible. Because you'll VERY rarely find a game where the ability isn't useful, cycling isn't really necessary, and thus not worth the addition mana compared to Stone Rain.
There is rarely situations where cycling ability is relevant. Only time is very late game, when they have 11+ basic lands and no nonbasic lands. But you rarely see those kinds of games.
