Text(UL+errata):At the beginning of your upkeep, if there are seven or more
lands in play, sacrifice ~this~. If you do, destroy all lands.
[Oracle 2001/03/07]
This ability does not trigger at all if there are not seven lands in play at
the beginning of upkeep. It checks this number again when it is going to
resolve and does not do anything if the land count is below 7.
[D'Angelo 1999/05/01]
The ability is not optional. [Barclay 1999/02/09]
If this card is not in play at the times its ability resolves, then you
cannot sacrifice it and it will not destroy any lands. This is because
the sacrifice is a cost paid during resolution to get the effect.

may pay {1}. If you do, counter that ability. If you don't,
sacrifice ~this~. ; Whenever enchanted creature attacks or blocks, you may

[Oracle 2002/10/01]
Both abilities are triggered abilities (see Rule A.4). The first one
triggers on the announcing of a creature ability, and the second
triggers on declaration of attacking or blocking. [D'Angelo 1999/02/11]
Extended tournaments (see Rule D.15) have always banned this card.
Note -There is a typo on this card. The gray circle for the generic mana
cost accidentally appears one line above the "1"; it should be behind it.
