This card, Burning Earth, would benefit a deck that aims to punish opponents who rely heavily on nonbasic lands for mana production, such as decks with a lot of dual lands or utility lands. While Burning Earth can be effective in certain matchups, there are potentially better options like Blood Moon or Magus of the Moon that can completely shut down nonbasic lands. Whether Burning Earth should see play depends on the specific metagame and the overall strategy of the deck it would be included in.
