and it's permanent... whaaaaaaaat are there any situations where this is better than vesuva ?
Yes: it enters the battlefield untapped and can immediately tap for .
Also: if you're just using Vesuva to kill your opponent's legendary land, this can serve as a land for you for several turns before doing a wasteland impression later in the game.
And apparently you can point it at a basic land somewhere if your opponent tries to Wasteland it in response.

You will need a way to untap it.

Apart from Scorched Ruins , you can also do weird things like rack up counters on your Raging Ravine and then turn it into a Llanowar Reborn .

Very cool. I had the idea of a land that could repeatedly copy other lands a while back and have been waiting for it to actually happen.

Questions though, if I copy a cavern of souls , can I choose a new creature type? or I got whatever creature type my opponent choose when he/she plays his/her cavern of souls? or I don't get any creature type at all?
You don't get to choose any type. You gain no protection for a type, at all, as that is a choice made as the card enters play. The card will also be unable to remember the copied card's choice, either. It can tap for any color, but you get nothing special about it.

It can't tap for any color if there's no selected creature type, actually. That's still conditional. It can tap for  though.
