I quite like this card, actually, now that I've had some time to think about it. In limited, it will be played right at a sweet spot... around turn 5-6 (depending on what mana ramping you have available), your hand will likely be looking a bit empty, and an opponent with a decent curve should only have two or three of his more expensive cards left in his hand - finishers, or removal that he/she's saving up. You're going to be depriving your opponent of a couple of good resources while refuelling yourself, and it's all wrapped up in one card/deckslot.
It's not flashy or anything, but I still think that it's costed fairly, and unless you're facing a really fast deck, I have a hard time imagining disappointment at the results of resolving one of these.

Not an unreasonable draft pick. Not a first pick by any means, but certainly not awful.

It seems like noone here uses it right. In the right deck, this is a star. Sure, it's the price of Mind Rot and Divination glued together without the Black mana, but this is sheer card advantage.

In draft, this is as awesome as any Mind Sludge or Identity Crisis. Color Pie be damned!

At 5 casting cost, I could have seen this maybe playable in a control deck, but just combining Mind Rot and Divination at exact casting costs really doesn't add anything. A great idea, but a wasted card, sadly.

I give it a 3.5/5, because I love blue discard, even if it is bad. I love this set -- it reminds me so much of Planar Chaos.

By six mana, don't expect them to have a hand to target.

Its expensive and easy to dislike.
I'll be the first to like something like this though. Mind rot is boring. Divination is boring. This is boring squared.
