Geological Appraiser {2}{R}{R}

Creature — Human Artificer

When Geological Appraiser enters the battlefield, if you cast it, discover 3. (Exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card with mana value 3 or less. Cast it without paying its mana cost or put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom in a random order.)

    One less color, ability to put card in hand, and no cast requirement in exchange for haste doesn’t seem like a bad trade, though I’ll admit I’m not really familiar with the decks that play it. Is haste a big part of its appeal?

      I don’t really think it gets played anymore, but yeah I think haste is a big part of its appeal. For any creature, you want it to do something the turn it comes down. This guy does still get you a card, but I doubt the advantage of putting the card in your hand is that great when you can build your deck around the cascade effect.
