I appreciate that unlike converge, domain just requires you to have the land types; a single triome does a lot for this card. And honestly, I love instant draw-2s, I love putting stuff in the graveyard. All that said, this is another one of those cards that I want to play, but not sure if it makes it. I think there are cases where you might just have only single basic type alongside painlands or pathways, making this a lot less impressive. That kind of variability leaves me a little worried and makes me want to look elsewhere for a comparable effect.
With fetch triome now the default manabase I think this could be sneakily good. Still I don’t expect it to make small-mid sizes unless you’re messing around with 15-20 fetches.

I primarily play limited, so most of my spoiler season comments view cards through that lens.
I added a domain package with the triomes in my DMU update, and it's been working out really well. Shadow Prophecy has been a big hit too, being instant speed and fueling the graveyard makes it a lot more flexible than Painful Truths. With domain count at 4 or 5, this is essentially a 3 mana Fact or Fiction / Memory Deluge type card, which is extremely powerful at 3 mana. I highly recommend for anybody running Triomes to try this out.
10/10. If you can have X=4, this is on the level of Dig through time where its draw 2 + put 2 in the graveyard, which is excellent in graveyard combo decks.

I originally scoffed this as a 3 CMC Divination, but the instant speed, digs upwards of 5 cards (usually 3-4) and graveyard synergy makes this more than ideal, especially how strong 2 CMC is with Signets, counter spells etc.
This has been great.

will try in black, istant speed and being able to put some beef in the graveyard can make up for the one card less than "painful truth"
