Uh; yeah. Kinda obviously worth the price. Almost certainly too good.

I agree. For the price you are paying this is a huge card. Even in the worst of circumstances, you are drawing one card for BR, and 3 life. While also discarding three lands into your graveyard, filtering them to enable you to draw other spells instead.

Whoa. Yes. This is like Sign in Blood but more likely to draw you 3-4 cards.

Though I guess the one thing it can't do is draw you lands, which is sometimes what you need. I wouldn't cast this on turn 2 in most games, for example.

Even so, I think it needs to be at least 3 mana.

The thing is at three cards/mana it feels (notwithstanding the fact rarity probably needs to go up) too close to Painful Truths.

I don't think that feeling "too close" to another card is a bad thing. It's significantly different.
