@mill theory
It feels more like they're pushing self-milling. In a set where playing from the graveyard is pretty much guaranteed, giving your opponent access to a bunch of their cards seems like a losing strategy.
And this seems like the Galvanic Blast/Mirran Mettle style nerf for Ancestral Recall. It makes me wonder if this will be a cycle of cards, requiring a super-threshold sort of thing.
Still, even on it's own, you're playing with essentially a 56 card deck. If you're playing from your graveyard, well you've got an incredible card here. It could have been 'draw two cards instead', and it still would have been incredible.

I can see this being very playable in the upcoming months when Innastrad hits the shelves.

Seems like it'd be a cheap Ancestral Recall for Dredge Decks

Holy hell, how did I miss this? Wizards REALLLY is trying to give 
a purpose other than a splash color. Either your illusion aggro or Mill control.

5/5. If you know how to use it, get a playset.
