Pointed Discussion

I died when opponent discarded autochthon wurm.

A buddy of mine has a deck built around this card. Completly insane... until I cast a Runed Halo.

Can't play Searing Wind? With this out, you don't need to.

Use with Grozoth, along with other cards that rely on high mana costs of course.

This appears to be a take on Stormbind, an oldschool card that converted unused cards in your hand into Shocks. The difference, other than the costs involved, is that you can get 0 damage when you discard a land. As with most random discard, it is best utilized when you control it - for example, playing this in an eldrazi deck, and using it when you have a ton of huge monsters and no lands in your hand.

Also, RIP Quinton Hoover, one of the all-time iconic Magic artists. While this may not be one of his most remembered cards, the art is pretty darn cool still.

I didn't know that Quinton Hoover died, and really recently...
As Glen Angus, another great artist that leaved this word just too early...
