So, a board wipe on a land? I'm gonna say say super overpowered.

Yeah, this is ridiculous. See Final Judgment for an equivalent effect and its cost.

Yeah, there is no way in hell this is not overpowered, even if I dropped it down to one creature that would still probably be a bit too powerful.

That's right.

Dropped the ETB effect. Made it enter tapped unless a requirement is met. Raise mana production by 1.

I feel like I could turn this into a cycle of creature bouncing dual lands, but not sure how that would be received, or if it's been done before.

"ETBT unless bounce a creature" is an interesting drawback on a land. Reminiscent of Faerie Impostor or Quickling.

However, there's no way it justifies getting {2} from a land. Even with a no-creatures restriction; there's more than plenty sorceries, enchantments etc that would be very happy to have a simple ETBT {2} land.

Yeah, very much agree there, going to make a big change to it, and hopefully it's not a bad one.

Changed from Legendary to Dual land. Kept ETB restriction. Now adds {w} or {u} instead of {2}. Took off restriction of use of mana.

Well, it's a lot less interesting now. But it's still a dual land, and sometimes a true dual; so it'll see use. And on the big plus side, it's no longer awesomely instantly broken :)
