Who says you need to wipe the board when you can just nuke the fattiest fatty?
Casting this thing with some 9/9 monstrosity will feel great. Casting this thing and having your 9/9 monstrosity die in response netting you 2 land because your other creature is a trinket mage... not so good feeling.
I already see this happen a lot with overwhelming stampede and soul's majesty.
As for your other point... if you do get say 5+ lands off this... if the table doesn't immediately see the guy who just dumped 5 lands into play as a threat then theyve got major problems with threat assesment
That would make it slightly worse than other land-searchers like that.
But yes, sometimes you have nothing but a 2/2 left. And it will still be fine.
What if there are other things alive?
What if it's a 4/4 or 5/5 on the board?
You shouldn't play this in a deck that only has a single 9/9 in play.
