Destroy target land, then Roiling Terrain deals damage to that land's controller equal to the number of land cards in that player's graveyard.

Where it came from
Roiling Terrain was released in 2010 as part of the Worldwake expansion for Magic: The Gathering. Set in the Zendikar block, the card reflects the world’s defining theme of a volatile, sentient landscape undergoing an awakening. Mechanically, it captures the 'landfall' aesthetic by punishing opponents for their reliance on resource expansion, reinforcing the set's focus on the power and instability of the earth itself.
The card was illustrated by Dave Kendall, who utilized a dark, moody palette to emphasize the destructive energy being unleashed upon the terrain. His design approach for this piece leaned into the gothic and elemental horror motifs that defined the Zendikar environment during the release. Upon its debut, the card was noted for its utility in red-green aggressive strategies, where it functioned as both a disruption tool and a win condition in limited and casual formats.
