You started to run out of wors for 'lizard' didn't you? :)
Repeatable landsearch. At a non-ideal cost for it, sure - but yow. The Primeval is just overkill given that this means you should never miss a land drop again.
In fact, I'm tempted to suggets splitting this - make it a combo peple discover, rather than a "Do X, then Y, Win" single card. (Seriously, once you've got to 7 lands, the next turn can be spent turning this into a 17/18 creature? This might need to become a game of kick the ouphe.)
Haha, you mean because of the "Sauro"? It started out as Saurid Magus, which is kinda too literal since Saurids are a race on Muraganda. Also, Sauromagus sounds like a transformer or a superhero :)
Yeah, this card troubled me from the beginning, have to ask if it would be ok to change it some.

The Primeval ability might need to be rephrased.
