I kind of hate this card, because it makes you want to hoard lands in your hand to make good use of it, but it also wants you to pay lots of mana for X...hmm, what to do...

Float the mana and playGush for it's alternate cost? Have a crucible of worlds out and you get those 2 islands back later.

Why not just use mana ramping = rituals? Keep 3 lands in your hand and cast a Pyretic Ritual on your 2nd turn to blow up 3 of your opponent's lands (if he went first).

EDH potential. You just drew twenty cards and 8 of em are lands you can't play? Toss em down with this baby. Get a huge board advantage.

Life from the Loam? Has no one seriously considered that combo? Then Eternal Witness this back to your hand or something.

Heh, in a BlueRed deck running Tamiyo, the Moon Sage if her -8 ability is off, this can be hilarious - build up and discard an insane-sized land filled hand and destroy all opponent's lands (and all those cards go back to your hand). :P
