Only when both cards appeared in a random draft did I realize how close a cousin this was to Mindwarper.
Other comparisons:
worse Mind Slash with a body
turns all your creatures into Thrull Surgeons
simplified He Who Hungers
Nezumi Bone-Reader's big brother
Sadistic Hypnotist's distant relative
Wall of Distortion/Cat Burglar with a better body and a serious drawback

Mind Slash in creature form, while more vulnerable, could attack and block. For discard's sake I'd pick Mind Slash but Corpse Traders seem more powerful in limited.

Mind slash is so much better, does the same thing cheaper and is an uncommon

This could be insane in EDH and Limited.

@Fenix
Read the part about it being activated only at sorcery speed. Nonetheless, combine this with anything that can come back easily (Bloodghast, Reassembling Skeletons, any Undying/Persist creatures) and it's nice. It's expensive though if you're doing it more than once per turn...

A 3/3 for in Black without any real drawback isn't very common. Ability is good, too.
@Fenix: You did read the card, right? Not only did it say "Activate this ability only any time you could cast a sorcery." But this isn't removal. It's discard.

Repeatable discard on a 3/3 body in Black? Colour me interested.
lorendoky & DoragonShizui: owww, I must have been tired when I wrote that comment, sorry, I fixed it.
