I think it is a bit meh. It is far too easy to get rid of in any color you can think of. lightning bolt, pte, doomblade etc
There is a lot of cheap removal in standard, and I guess there will be lots more (like the spoiled o-ring wannabe) to make this a very strong card.
It is not a body, even though it has 2 power, the toughness is not impressive. Also, this only works when you play a land.
I think birds is better, since you can get mana off of it even when you don't play a land this turn, and you can also get mana off of birds in your opponent's turn, wich can be important in some cases.
I can see it getting play in block, and maybe limited, but I hardly see it playable in standard or any other constructed format besides block.

It makes Harrow free spells.
Yes it must be answered immediately, and it can be dealt with by most removal cards, but if it isn't, you will have 5 mana turn 3 if you play a fetchland. If you then play Harrow for the two floating mana and one of the three lands, you have 4 mana up and 2 mana floating.
I think a Broodmate Dragon turn 3 is quite nice. Or a Battlegrace Angel if you don't have Harrow, or a Garruk and another Lotus Cobra for a turn 4 *name powerful spell here*.
The fact that the card is a living bull's eye doesn't make it weak. Just ask Dark Confidant. |

| confidant wins topdeck wars this not. but this can luck out your opp if you have to many fetchies in starting hand + the cobra turn 2 and a powerful spell. anyway nice for the 5 color ramp although it will suck bolt and pe like nothing.. but then your pws will bust it out. |

I'm completely fine if they use their removal on my 2-drop, so that my other fatties run freely to bash faces in, imho. |

| Card may break the format, but Pithing Needle has value now as it slows it down. However a turn 3 Roil Elemental is nice! |

| Yeah and as we all know Pithing Needle is imbabroken because it can stop triggered abilities! |

Hence the activated abilitua named on the card. Its the fetch lands that makes this card insane!
