by Bombshell:

This is a very, very interesting thinning mechanic--almost feels taken out of Dominion. Nicely done.

by SFletcher:

Damn, it does feel like Dominion! I hadn't even thought of that!

My goal was actually to make a land that feels really cool early on, but that starts causing some trouble later when it keeps coming up in draws. I suspect it probably needs some tweaking (land might not come in tapped), but it's close.

Yeah, you know what? Changed that.

by Jack V:

Oh, that is interesting. Now it's almost exactly the same as the dual fetchlands ("T, sac, pay 1 life: Search your library for or...") but putting itself in your library rather than into the graveyard, so the strength is presumably right, but I like your thought that they're better/worse because they thicken your deck with land.
