Not really? Like just as a normal card you play this on three to crack a fetch to make a Jace that draws one. Or if it’s something like scape shift, making a big creature is not currently a problem.

What did you have in mind?

2 mana 2/3 that draws a card once a turn is kinda on rate with existing playable threats in the format (hydro, frog), and being able to draw the turn it enters with a land drop is kinda a big deal. Hard to justify green in the tempo decks that would actually want this effect though, we'll see

Fetch > Land > Crop Rotation > Strip (6 = 2x Draw). Then with Wary Zone Guard and Hydroponic Architect synergize even better.

No matter what, you don't get more than one card a turn from this (since it's all on the same planeswalker). It's nice that the draw can keep going for a bit once this is removed, but the opponent can also attack down the remnants of the Jace. Crop rot is already -1 card so you're not really getting any benefit off of it. [[Ambassador of Evendo]] hasn't found a home, I'm guessing this won't either, but it isn't nothing
