Premodern archetypes that play Wasteland
- Goblins (3x)
- Terrageddon: It denies mana and grows Terravore. Use it before Armageddon: it squeezes their mana in the turns before, and the Wasteland and its target count for Terravore either way. Against mostly basic lands it is the best card to discard to Mox Diamond.
- Oath of Druids: Answers Serra's Sanctum, the Urza lands, Gaea's Cradle and every nonbasic in the format, and together with the land it destroys it puts two more land cards into graveyards for Terravore.
- Mono Black: Most lists play two, next to four Mishra's Factory: Wasteland destroys a nonbasic land such as Adarkar Wastes, Serra's Sanctum, Gaea's Cradle, an Urza land or Treetop Village, while the Factories attack and block as 2/2s.
