It comes online earlier when discard is best and it feeds your other synergies when it is dead
In essence, you get to draw two cards and play more land every time you hit an opponent with this, and thats going to add up to a lot of extra value very quickly
It does tap itself for its effect so Collector's Vault only benefits once per turn unless you have ways to untap it before your normal untap step

You can cast the spell normally but you also have the option of activating the card in your hand to generate a smaller effect
Three mana to drop it and you get to scry 1 on your upkeep
