The math says you have a 76% chance of getting a crucher. (this is asuming you dont mulligan past 4. but the awesome part about it is that you can mulligan because you have 53 lands.)
But statistically speaking, you'll lose a quarter of your games, before anything even happens. So lets say you play 8 rounds, assume that's 24 games, on average, you will auto lose 6 games (and thus, 3 matches) before anyone did anything. Now count the fact that your opponent can use a single removal spell to kill the crusher before your next upkeep, that brings the winning percentage even lower.
I'm sure countryside crusher can be abused, but I don't think playing 51 lands is the way to do it.

yeah - obviously I disagree with you, John. Spam Warning!.....Amazing - even in a forum where posts don't count, there's spam. That proves that getting rid of the post-count won't help getting rid of spam! Thans for this excellent example! - Craven
yah have u thought of elemental burn with rage forger its the best chance RDWs has in block which is much with all the five collar decks with kitchen finks and kithkin with burrenton forge tender main this decks not gonna do well imp but i think the elemental burn is aggressive and can be faster and more consistant u should probably still run crusher since hes beast
Yeah, i am not a fan of the Crusher Abuse decks. its kinda like Predator, its just to fragile. it goes, alright, you have crusher then overturn lots of cards. Cool, Killit.
@Apex: Recheck your math.. 8 Rounds, 6 game losses, does -not- imply losing three matches. What if all 6 losses are in different matches? Statistically, you just 8-0'ed. But yes.. The single real threat is far too vulnerable to count on in a format with Nameless and 'Maw being heavily played, no question about it.

You'll play crusher, and he'll die.
Alot.
To improve, put something like the bubble card from lorwyn on him so he's unblockable/targetable.
And some islands.
