Nature's Claim is a Instant (mana cost {G}; Instant; rarity: common; most recent printing listed by Scryfall: Iconic Masters). Scryfall lists its Commander legality as legal, Modern legality as legal, and Legacy legality as legal. Here is what the card actually does and how to judge whether your deck wants it.
The card, on its actual text
Destroy target artifact or enchantment. Its controller gains 4 life.
That text is the whole evaluation. Cards earn slots by what their text does in the games you actually play — the turns where mana is tight, the board is contested, and a card drawn late has to matter immediately. Judge this one against the role it would fill in your list, not against a highlight reel, and weigh any drawback printed on it as seriously as the effect itself.

Which decks want it
Every slot should argue for itself against the card it replaced. Test a new inclusion through the deck's normal sequence — early development, mid-game pressure, late-game closing — and notice where it helps and where it sits dead. Cards that only shine in the best case are the first cuts when a proven role-player needs the slot back.

The honest verdict
Protect the plan, but do not smother it. A small protection package earns its keep when your commander or engine is the target; beyond that, extra protection dilutes the very strategy it guards. Run enough answers to stop a game-ending threat, and spend the remaining slots moving your own plan forward.
