We are fairly convinced, in theory, that this card is utterly broken. You actually accrue cards, so once you don't hit two lands a couple times you can actually draw your entire deck for 2R. I think you have to discard at least as many cards as you draw for this to be remotely fair.

ha, somehow I'd never seen this card, it looks innocuous on first glance, but yes is basically Seismic Assault Swans in a single card nearly.

For some reason I thought hitting two lands was more likely than two spells. That's probably because every time I cast Divination it hits two lands. Since we need a LOT of uncommons cutting, I'm happy to retire this.

I have no idea if this fixes it or just makes it into utter jank. Probably the latter.
