Mudhole exiles all lands from a single player's graveyard — an effect so narrow it's almost never relevant. Three mana to answer a problem that either doesn't exist or is already handled by generically better graveyard hate.

In Commander, Mudhole is unplayable: graveyard recursion decks care about creatures and spells, and the rare land-recursion threat is answered more efficiently by Bojuka Bog or Rest in Peace. Legacy and Vintage are the only competitive formats where it's legal, and neither wants it — those formats have Wasteland and Strip Mine for land disruption, and graveyard hate slots go to Surgical Extraction or Leyline of the Void. Mudhole sits in a gap between two useful effects — land destruction and graveyard hate — without being competitive at either.

unknown tier
Pricing data isn't available for Mudhole at this time, but its near-zero competitive demand means copies typically sit at bulk rare prices wherever they surface. It's not worth picking up for play, and there's no real collector pressure driving its value.
