That seems a bit too good for its cost, to me. Ok, it's legendary, but even so.
I had based this of Deus of Calamity, but I left off the minimum damage.
Seems better now you're up-costed it, and that throwing something in the way prevents the horrible bit. I'm not sure how land destruction is green, or time related, but seems less horrible.
This is the thing that sank Atlantis. Maybe if I made it red... I'm probably going to tweak the name as well.
I wonder if Wizards thought the Deus was a "good" or "successful" card. He's certainly balanced when you play him on round 4, say, but he can get really nasty when he pops up on round 2. Making him swing one round earlier when Zombified makes this even rougher. Still, while he appeared on the tournament scene, he wasn't wrecking the environment, and the discussion page seems to have more people happy with what he represents than annoyed at the land destruction every turn. Maybe it's because, if you're losing to this guy, you've already lost, and you can pack up and play another game... as opposed to Stone Rain x4, which you may get out from under, but it's going to be an annoying game from that point in.
