I thought this seemed fine and balanced, and then I played against it. And realised that if you don't need your land drop, this is FREE. Owch. Needs changing.
So... have you seen Magma Rift since making this card? I admit Magma Rift is kind of bad, though. Seeing as Zendikar has the whole Landfall thing, I would have preferred this one [exagerated wink].
This card was created as an alternative to Magma Rift, because I didn't want to just reprint a card. I said over on the Facets of Sienira page "This set would have really liked Plated Geopede and Magma Rift, and perhaps in development I'll swap them in for the cards that have those slots at the moment."
Design philosophy has shifted a lot in the past 6 years, and this would very likely now just be a reprint of Magma Rift... Either that or perhaps the new Devour in Flames, which further demonstrates how massively underpriced this card was.
