Commenting on Every Card this Weekend! :D And commenting on Alpha cards really is fun. I need to eventually Draft Alpha. heck I don't care if you take the Power out-- Alpha Magic is just Cool and Fun even without $1000 dollar cards! :O
This is an interesting concept of card. It certainly FEELS like a really Egyptian Curse, which is neat. I like that even though we've never had an explicitly Egyptian Block, there's a lot of cards in Magic that have an Egyptian/Dr. Fate kind of feel to them :)
The problem with this card is that being of low converted mana cost, it encourages you to play it early, and that does hurt you much, and you really should never play this in Multiplayer.
I think {3} is a great number to cast this for, since that could come down early if you have a plan to get around the two-edgedness, but if you don't have enough support and want to throw this down to stop ALL the lands and rely on the lands you have in play, then it's still castable early enough to hurt people... (see all)

I have an annoyingly rich friend who always runs the Zendikar search lands (e.g. Misty Rainforest) with the Ravnica shock lands (e.g. Stomping Ground).
I wanna see the look on his face when it takes him a total of 7 life to play a land, then he dies to a Price of Progress.

I got randomed here >_> really cool card when you bounce all of the lands and have a better board position out on the field, even if he starts laying lands again he is gonna suffer.

I'm glad my ankh pendant didn't deal 2 damage to me when I bought my house.

Shock lands are good right? This turns ALL your lands into shocks! PROFIT! Anyway, this is good for random aggro decks that wand to deal a bunch of damage for two mana. Stick it down early and it'll pay off. If it hits twice it's already better than any burn spell you could get for that much.
