I'm amazed that they'd be willing to print something like this but am definitely pumped.
For example, Nexus decks in standard (UG/x) struggle big time vs a deck like Mono Blue.
This land alone answers problematic permanents like a one drop enchanted by curious obsession (they have so many counters to back up the threat that it's impossible to get rid of it).
And all you need is 3 other mana. That's huge game.
My EldraziTron deck is getting some toys this set.
Eldratron will benefit from this indeed.
I think one strength of this card is it can be played as a single in the maindeck, occupying one land slot, without much consequences of diluting threats. Cards with similar abilities.. if someone put a ratchet bomb in the main.. the bomb could be a dead draw against certain opponents.
So the new Elf proliferates on landfall right? With the right sequencing, you can basically set the counters to whichever CMC is most prevalent om the board. Then just some way to reshuffle it back or bring it back (Crucible?) and you've got a soft-lock on the table.

This card will also have a big impact in control.
Be ready to see this card A LOT.

I just found that on Cardmarket - so there the translation exists (unless it's of course a nice looking photoshop).
