Great card! Four life isn't anything to sneeze at. Out of lightning bolt range. Mana curve average.
At best 4 in your mainboard. At worst 4 in your sideboard to mainboard if your opponent has a discard deck.
Got to save up some money....

A solid card for a RG attrition deck. When you are flinging damage at everyone, you need to have a way to stay on top. Getting an beefy attacker/blocker and 4 life in one efficient package is wonderful.
In many decks you could play this over the top of one or two manabarbs without a net loss in life. And it counteracts two-thirds of the damage having two spiteful visions would cause.

The funny thing is, you are actually discarding him onto the battlefield. It doesn't replace the word discard.

Reminds me of Loxodon Hierarch. Great card, nice design.

"I'll play Mind Rot. Discard two."
"AWESOME, thank you. I'll gain 8 life and put two 4/4 guys out."
Discard might not be nearly as fun to play while this guy's in Standard.

Great card. 4/4 for four + 4 life + a madness like ability. Its golden 5/5

One of those cards which you hate to see your opponent plop down after you hit them with Blightning

This will easily see play just to counter jund's blightnings, but once that rotates out this will probably drop. It'll still be good vs RDW, but not against much else and it'll be stuck as a sideboard card at best unless SoM has a discard spell as broken as blightning.
