Worse than Ponder or Preordain, but that may be okay. Better than Opt except that that's an instant. A bit more fiddly than any of them. But gets much better if anyone's been using Hinder or similar tuck effects on you.
Very good in EDH, yes.
I made it purposefully to be worse than Ponder and Preordain, since their banning in Modern makes me think they're "too powerful." You really think it's more fiddly than Ponder?
The shuffle on Ponder is definitely more fiddly than looking at the bottom card. I don't know how often people choose to shuffle with Ponder - maybe 25% of the time? The rest of the time this is something that I've seen Wizards say they consider too fiddly to want to do much with. Cellar Door was an exception.
Fair enough. I was just trying to think of "worse" variants of Ponder and Preordain.
