Thought about this quote for ages. Its like its the source of everything not-you. Here's trying to capture that in. Card.
Neat. Prolly too cheap, but whatever. As a bonus, if there's a land on top of your deck, this is an automatic draw.
Mmm, yeah; this is gonna draw a card maybe 90% of the time. I guess the time it fails the opponent gets to see the top card of your deck; and they know they can keep casting that turn. But not a huge downside.
Pretty nifty idea though. Good implementation of the flavour.
Yeah. I considered excluding lands, and maybe that would be better. I was't sure how to evaluate this. I reckoned it was worth about half a card a turn (as lands are generally less valuable, and creatures more valuable, so a lot of time you won't be getting the most valuable card). I think I'd rather tone it down and leave the "draw random cards" aspect more prominent, as opposed to upping the cost and treating it as a "almost always draw" card.
If you want to tone it down then I agree "if it's a nonland card that shares no type with that spell" is a good way to go.
What if you played with the top card revealed, and used that to mess with your opponents' sequencing? Makes it a bit more lenticular too.
