Very very powerful in conjunction with Retrace and looting. Probably needs an activation cost or to be increased significantly in cost. Icy Ground + this + a looter is a crazy good lock. The looter even helps you dig for lands which is all you need!

Looting Charm, discarding Mountain, Island, kill your two guys, Empty the Libraries for 6 1/1s. Lots of fun!

I think this is way too good. Burning Vengeance cost 2R and required you to play a bunch of flashback spells. This costs less, triggers far more easily (and from creatures so you can use it multiple times at basically no cost), and doesn't cost you any cards since you're mostly looting when you discard. Plus there are spells that loot multiple times in one go which was never an issue for things like Burning Vengeance since you can't flash something back more than once!

I think maybe an increase in cost AND an activation cost are in order. Compare Spirit Cairn (2W, W to activate, for a 1/1 flier) and Telekenetic Bonds (2UUUU, 1U to activate, to tap or untap something). Geth's Grimoire costs 4 and draws you a card every time your opponent discards.

This is still really good! As discussed we can either decrease the damage it deals, increase the activation cost, or just cut it. My first inclination would be to go with the Furnace Celebration cost of 2
