: Put a basic land card from your graveyard onto the battlefield tapped.
I'd play this over Crucible of Worlds in a heartbeat. Unless you've got something like Azusa, Lost but Seeking, it's pretty much strictly better: you get a land from the graveyard as well as one from hand!
...Oh, hang on. "basic land card". Okay, that might be a bit saner than I thought.
Originally this design was intended to tie in to a mini-theme in green built around converting forests into creatures.
I do think the basic land restriction keeps this within reason, as it's rare in traditional Magic that your graveyard is conveniently full of enough basics that you can use this like Exploration. Especially with most modern LD being geared against nonbasics.

Ah! Like crucible of worlds, but with the limit on this being tapped instead of on playing one land a turn. It's probably at a fair price.
