My idea is for a cycle of allied colored dual lands. The template would read something like this:
UB Land
When UB Land comes into play search your library for an island and a swamp. Remove them from the game, or sacrifice UB Land.
Tap: Add either U or B to your mana pool.
The card would certainly be a rare. I think removing both required lands from your deck subtly balances out the immediate gains. Your screwing your mid to long term mana production for immediate gains.
Think if you held a hand with 3 lands, one being the one just mentioned. Playing it first turn would certainly trim your manabase, and decrease your chances of drawing future lands.
Requiring the player to search and remove BOTH lands keeps mono colored aggressive decks from running them simply to trim mana from their library.
OR WoTC could just reprint the old dual lands...geeze I would love that!
