Rationale
0cmc land with optional replacement effect: enter tapped as a copy of any land from a graveyard (plus Cave type), or tap for {C}. Situational mana fixer in graveyard-matters shells, but requires both graveyard density and payoff cards to justify the setup cost. Dead without opp/self-mill engines filling the yard; no immediate mana value on entry makes it slower than traditional ramp. Fringe-tier in specialized graveyard-centric decks; unplayable in aggro/tempo/burn due to tapped entry and setup requirement."
