By seen this as a control deck, the "discard at random" has no problem, the problem is the "discard your hand", and yeah: its casting cost could be more reasonable.
Seen it as an aggro/unearth deck, I'd say "discard your hand" and then 3 more cards could be an HUGE pump up, regardless you still draw another 4 cards; but still, for 5 mana you could just discard your hand, discard 3 at random and draw 4 cards with much less casting cost... I think it should be just {U}{B}{R} or at least not to be a sorcery.

I really wish this had been target player instead of only yourself. That would have been a brutal finisher for my forced draw/discard deck what with multiple underworld dream/megrim/spiteful visions out.

I have 4 copies of this card in my shared fate deck, playing this with shared fate in play, I discard my hand, I exile 7 cards from someone's library, and discard no cards at random from my empty hand, great way to grab a handle on your opponents deck

If you just want a draw spell, use Tidings. This should literally never be used outside a deck that can really take advantage of sending 3-7 cards to the graveyard.

Works with any graveyard recursion, nets you 4 cards off an empty hand, and triggers any drawing triggers you've got, if any.

Fun in Burning Vengeance decks, provided you've packed your deck with flashback cards.
