Well First and foremost the wording is terrible. It should be something like: PLayers can play nonland cards any time they could play an instant. Or something...
Anyway the second line won't make any sence after the first line has taken effect. If you kan play your spells as instants, then you can also play them during the combat fase.
Third: It is overpowered... An enchantment that only costs {G} to play and has this great effect on the game is way too broken... It should cost at least 1 {G} or maybe more realistically 2 {G}.

Oh and by the way. Try to compare your card to Vedalken Orrery.

Although I think that Meanee has missed the subtle point that this allows you to play spells only during your combat phase, I am not sure that it's quite the penalty you think it would be. Because I can play everything at the speed of an instant, any spell I would play during my pre-combat main phase, I would instead cast during my beginning of combat step. Any spell I would play during my post-combat main phase, I would instead cast during my end of combat step. Really, the only thing this affects are spells that would be played at the end of turn and spells that would be played during one's upkeep. Since I think that penalty is minor, I'd have to contend that between it and the fact that this affects both players, this is overpowered compared to Vedalken Orrery.

Did you know that Red is the color or art and music and passion? Combine that with Green, the color of nature, spiritualism, and community and you get a hippie commune of drum circles, dreamcatchers, and recreational drug use. Let's see that win a Pro Tour.

How about something like:

All spells may be played only as though they were instants during the upkeep phase

I think that would do more of what you want.

What is this supposed to DO, exactly? Were you trying to hose something specific (a la Hand To Hand hosing COPs)?
