This card may be too evil.

Hmm... He can only slow down one creature at a time. The irritating thing is the land-bounce, and the way that once he's got at least one thing of mine being juggled, I'm never increasing my land count beyond its current level. If I cast one creature a turn, all-but-one of them will get there with on average only one turn's delay. It's the land balance that might get too annoying. But then, if I'd be too hamstrung by the land bounce, I don't have to cast any creatures...

It's fairly strong, and undeniably a griefer card, but I think it's probably not too evil to print.

Do you think it deserves to be Mythic?

Yes, I think the effect is powerful and splashy enough to be suitable for mythic.
