Quick example of a mechanic I thought up. Common version.

This would be centered in . Helps smooth out draws when looting so you won't technically be down a card, gives something extra to do late game, and even helps newer players when they get mana screwed and have to discard to hand size (albiet only during the next turn).

Oh, interesting idea! Although I wonder if it would be simpler if it was just a front face with a nonbasic G land -- it would still have the "play from graveyard" bonus, but if you wanted it to have some utility from your hand, it could have a "when ETB" effect or a "discard from hand: " effect
