Can anyone tell me why Goblin Guide is so good? I'm not saying it's bad I just don't get why people like the card so much, I mean it practically throws land in your opponents hand.

Just a nice quick one drop that is a 2/2.

on average

but even when they are "benifiting, most players get land overwhelmed and thus it really doesn't help them until late game, then once you don't want them to get anymore lands, boom goblin gernade

I like it for psychological reasons. 

1, it's fast.  2, they may be tempted to take the damage for  a 1 in 3 to get a land.  3. it has the slight mill effect. 

So really, it's good all around.  A 2/2 haste mill card.

dont forget it gives you knowledge....unless it reveals a land, you know what their next draw is. and knowledge is power. you know what they are getting, they still dont know what you have in hand....thats power.
