So, you draw 2 cards, flush all lands and draw back that many lands? Seems rather clunky. "Reveal your hand and discard all land cards revealed this way. Then draw that many cards plus two." makes a bit more sense. Even tho i'm not keen on give draw two for 3 mana without a condition. I could also think about 1U "Draw two cards, then reveal your hand and discard all land cards revealed this way."
draw 2 has been a staple in magic for ages. Look at Divination and counsel of the soratami.
Raptor is clearly right here. As well as those, there are things like Mulldrifter which is pretty much strictly better than Divination, Compulsive Research/Thirst for Knowledge which are often better, and Pilfered Plans, Consult the Necrosages and Esper Charm which are better than Divination except for needing more colours (but still at 3 mana).
The powerelevel on this card is fine, but I agree it's clunky.
I think this is probably alright, but maybe for one extra mana (cf. Brilliant Spectrum) at common, though. I agree Volvary's templating is an improvement.
I too prefer the version where you draw two after discarding lands. I would still play this in limited even if it was a 3U common sorcery.
