­Grave Digger is not a bad card. Already able to recur further copies of itself that card is uncommon material. Making it cheaper and adding cycling doesn't really fit it any better to common.

The balance of some or most of these does feel pushed for common to me. It was sort of my first attempt to experiment with nonbasic landcycling.

I'm trying to get a feel for how nonbasic landcycling would work out. It strikes me that it should generally cost {3} or more.

For the moment I'm going to switch all of these to uncommon and add {1} to the cost. Even that might still be pushed in this case if we're comparing to Gravedigger, as it's still strictly better.

Removed nonbasic landcycling, changed cost to 2BB, and changed to "creature or planeswalker".
