At first I was like "Eh" but then I realized that this is a manland that grows every time you activate it, that can dodge bolt because of the "may", can be activated multiple times in a turn for some decks, and has no color requirements.
Like, does Tron run any manlands? It should run this one.
Maybe they even reprint it in Zendikar, as it got fairly expensive.
Yeah, this is one of the more explosive Training Grounds "targets". Also, "fairly expensive"? English NM are like €25 on Cardmarket - it's by far the most expensive rare of the set, and only behind the three Titans in price.
You would still have to pay 4 originally to make it a creature every turn before getting the reduction to 2 for putting more counters on it. Doesnt seem all that great for Training Grounds

Cool card. Always wanted something like this in EldraziTron in Modern. May have to start playing it again.

Right in my land creature wind grace deck (if I can get it).

The ability to casually dump 4 into at the end of turn makes this very strong. Control can easily keep growing this until its a one or two turn clock.
Also, 20ish lands in the set. Is that high or low from previous Zendikars?

I guess that 20 is about normal.
...Not including basic lands. That’s the part that makes me most skeptical of this card, really. With this card around, Zendikar would need to have the fewest versions of its full art land that it has ever had (and it’s already been announced that they are doing full art land).
It's really good with Wilderness Reclamation, if it weren't banned
It would have rotated out already anyways.

EDIT: Assuming this is real. What's the source?

Especially since training grounds reduces it to 2 after the first activation hey maybe it will be reprinted here since it originated in zendikar
Oh don't forget it's a mana sink so with infinite mana...oh boy.
This is a card a couple of my more... long-winded decks could benefit from.

I’d love that too, but it’s not usually a priority. Even Theros was neglected underwater.
Oddly enough, Ravnica has some of the most fleshed-out underwater areas
