Look at the color this is in. It's red. Mix it with its good pal blue and it's not too difficult to build a deck completely devoid of permanents. If the game runs long enough to drop this the worst that could happen to you is you end up with a couple of additional tools to protect yourself or threaten your opponent and you've damaged your opponents board position.

My dream is to play this on top of an Eye of the Storm.

I love this card, for all its random silliness. Obviously, it can turn the game your way as easily as it can ruin everything, but when you've got your back to the wall you might as well cast it and hope that you get the better deal. Just don't play it in token swarm decks...

Sure, when you use the card you're throwing the game to the winds of chance. However, don't we all depend on chance and luck when it comes to drawing the right hand or the right card? It's all about strategy, and stacking the odds in your favor.
It would of course be stupid to play this in a situation where you already have a significant lead, but when the chips are down, or when you need to make that one last desperate throw for the victory (as red often does), this card is great. Say during your opponents end step you Fling all of your creatures at him, or sacrifice any number of other permanents to deliver a painful blow. He's hurt, but you don't really have any creatures left to finish him, or block whatever creeps he has in play. Well you, being the clever DJ Johnny that you are, decide to mix things up with Scrambleverse.
There's no guarantee that you're gonna come out on top, but odds are that if you only have one or no creatures ... (see all)

Creatureless 
ramp would love this. How am I just finding out about this right now???
T1 Abundant Growth.
T2 Rampant Growth.
T3 Harrow, Harrow, Farseek.
T4 This, steal whatever your opponent dropped, 50/50 chance for each thing.
With all that mana fixing, you could even go 
also, and run Rite of Replication alongside it. Not that they combo together or anything.
Heck you could even go white, and hardcast Heroes Remembered, just because your a boss. Could do it on turn 4 with the above hand.
And the good news, you can stack it to be consistent. I won many guys with a turn 4-6 Rite of Replication,

Strange that it doesn't tell you how to choose the player at random. Are you supposed to flip coins? roll dice? draw straws?

Dying miserably? Every other player at a significant advantage? Only one turn away from someone finishing you off?
F**k it. Day of Judgment will only buy you one or two turns before people seek revenge. THIS... could tip the game.

Not in the spirit of this card but follow it up with Gruul Charm to steal back what is yours. Prepare to lose friends :-(
