This is VERY useful, and effectively costs only 
in the right situations. For example, blink a creature and a land to counter a removal spell and get an untapped land back in the process.

I am a HUGE fan of the "blink" effect! I really hope we get to see more of it in the future!

Definitely interesting. In a standard where counterspells are much less useful, blink could answer removal if good enough ETB critters are around. This could potentially do that, although I'm iffy on the second target being useful enough to use this over Cloudshift.

This is really quite a good card, especially for a common. Just for uses that you can throw it in for:
Re-triggering landfall TWICE, and it basically pays for itself if you don't use tap lands, and it'll only end up costing 1.
Re-triggering two enters-the-battlefield effects, whether the be split between creatures, lands or whatever
Removing your creatures from combat, to prevent combat damage, while still blocking the opponent's creatures
Making the effects from cards like Act of Treason become permanent (and remember, you can target different permanent types, so you can bounce one creature that you took control of with act of treason, and bounce one of your tapped lands to reduce the cost of this down by one)
Bounce mana artifacts in order to get a second spurt from them
Reset cards with vanishing or whatever
And think about the fun cards you can use with it! Eternal Witness, Snapcaster Mage (Which is in the same ... (see all)

Going in my Liquimetal Coating and Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas artifact deck.
It'll let me make two artifact 5/5 creatures for only -1 a turn.

Down right evil when paired with Eternal Witness. It is pretty much build your own combo at that point.

Right now, my favorite targets with this card are Skinrender , Mortar Pod , Massacre Wurm , Geralf's Messenger , and Grave Titan .

I'm sad this doesn't say "two target permanents".
On the plus side, this turns your Archaeomancers into GODS of recurring instants and sorceries.
