This is an odd sort of card to consider. The promise of repeatable flying finishers is undeniably tempting, but the sorts of decks that are likely to be able to build to its mana cost might also want to keep playing lands for other reasons (Remand backup?), rather than discard them. It does offer some welcome resilience in the control mirror, as holding back only one land gives you insurance against a topdecked answer, and if you're alive to cast this card, you might only need to deal with one answer anyway. It also just happens to be in the right colors for the best spell-centric decks and support cards in Commander.
