if it was like coiling oracle then it would be a lot worse

There was a nice solution in Standard for this, it was Mental Misstep, but that was only for about a month or two.

If they got to put the land directly into play it would still be one of the best one-drop Goblins around.

A 2/2 for 1 with haste... wow @_@
If he comes out turn 1, he'll probably do 4 damage minimum, aka Flame Javelin but at only 1 mana, pretty nuts.

This is a really lovely creature that gives you some good first turn pressure, but it can also really hurt you if you get unlucky. No one likes giving card advantage to their opponent, but swinging for 2 on the first turn? That can really get a red deck the momentum it needs. I'd say that nine times out of ten this card is a real early game winner with a perfectly red flavor!

I'm baffled that this isn't 5 stars across the board - this card could not be an ounce more powerful and still have been printed, it's exceedingly red, and it's outlandishly good fun to play.
There may be no more specific, nor more delicious, noise than the one uttered by your opponent when you drop a guide on the play.

Much too powerful.

This really is a great card, but I think it wouldn't be too hard for your opponents to abuse it and use this against you; especially when they play a green deck. This could help them a lot on mana accelerating. Additionally, if they use the Sylvan Library & Abundance "Draw Combo", they would never mind to reveal their whole hand. I think thhis work best in a Red Blue deck, countering all upcoming threat.
So 4/5

Drawback ?What drawback? All I see is "defending opponent reveals the top card of his/her library"

It doesn't even let the opponent filter, you know. If the card that is revealed isn't a land, it stays on top, whether they like it or not.
