There is absolutely no way in hell this is anywhere close to fair in any Constructed format.
Yeah--maybe at 2 and 2 it can be tested--but wolfer doesn't normally design his sets for constructed that much.
Went with 2/2. This is the kind of card that often looks too powerful, but rarely is
No, like. Divining Top.
I think paying 4 mana to draw a card ONLY IF you have a top active isn't worth it, particularly when you can pay four mana for JACE.
All that aside, this is made for a format where there is not top, so I can be a little bit more careless about hyper-synergies with old cards. I think 2/2 will be fine, and I suspect this card won't be played in my mini-format.
2/2 is fine. I thought your comment about the card looking powerful but not actually being powerful was on when it was still 1/1, and my response was in regards to that.
