5 mana for 2 lands? That feels significantly worse than the typical costing for land search. Even at the 3 mana for 1 land price, normal land search puts it onto the battlefield tapped. How about XGG instead of XXG? Otherwise I'd suggest keeping the price but putting the lands into play tapped. OR some sort of side benefit, like an X/X creature tokens.
It should be noted that this gets any land, and not just basic. So this is like a Sylvan Scrying that costs one more, but has 'kicker'. In theory fair. But I got to agree with NyphadoraTonks that even if this is fair, it reads poorly.
Going to hand also hurts the aspirational "I have 19 mana!" uses. (Useful, I guess, if you have a one-shot nigh-infinite mana engine, and want to upgrade to an 'every turn'?) So yeah, I think it wants some upside.
Hot.
