This card would benefit a control or tempo deck that aims to disrupt the opponent's mana base while ramping up its own resources. However, there are better options like Seedborn Muse or Kiora's Follower that provide similar effects more efficiently. Benthic Explorers may not see much play in competitive Magic: The Gathering decks due to its high cost and limited impact compared to other options available.
