So there is a card that costs two mana and lets you search for ANY land and you people rate it low beacause it doesn't put that land into play. I guess you think it's better to put a boring meaningless basic land into play than put any land you want into your hand, what a shame.

I wasn't aware that people rated this awesome card low.
It's a solid card and I guess people don't realize that there are some uber land out there worth picking over a simple basic land.
Like it's been given here as an example "Tolarian Academy" one of the best lands out there.
Or how about perhaps "Gaea's Cradle ? Or maybe you prefer a Serra's Sanctum ? :D
Or let's go really nuts and pick a dual land out of your library.
Next to that, it has beautiful art to boot as well, nothing wrong with it :)

I'll splash green into my Eldrazi deck to get some of these. They can search for Vesuva, Cloudpost, Glimmerpost, Eldrazi Temple and that single Eye of Ugin should it become necessary :)

yeah as obvious as it may seem... Tolarian Academy in case people didn't read the card text properly or it didn't phase them at first glance.

I base my ratings purely off of hotness ratings. PURELY. Thus this is 5 star. Along with Soaring Hope and Sylvan Ranger.

Use this to bring out an Eldrazi Temple when you need it.

Jesus christ for the millionth time not every card deserves 5 stars. 4 is a fine rating for this card. The lands you will pull with this will be 5 star cards as they will win you the game or put you in a vastly superior position, but this card itself won't win you the game. What if you draw your tolarian academy or whatever in your draw step and then next turn pull this card? It's a dead draw.
4 stars is not low. Not even 3 stars is low.
Let me just break down the higher end of the star ranking system since people seem to have forgotten it.
3 stars is average, par for the course. Creatures with reasonable P/T for their mana cost and relevant creature types. The better priced card draw spells and lower tier tutoring. 3.5 stars is above average, such as creatures with one or more types of good evasion, or trample and high p/t or the better (but not best) tutoring spells. 4 stars is exceptional. Not necessarily game-winning, but it will allow you to get in a superior position ... (see all)
