Would it have been too powerful if it destroyed target artifact or enchantment at that madness cost? Or if it just destroyed target enchantment but had a madness cost of 0?

Bog Witch. This. Use the three mana to play that Haakon, Stromgald Scourge you dredged using Stinkweed Imp. Card advantage is better than a Demystify, if the situation arises.

Nothing I know of is "strictly better" than this. If you can find a way to pay a cost by discarding a card and then PLAYING that card in your deck, this card has some uses.

It's a Demystify for its madness cost. And you're right. It's still bad.

Bad even for its madness cost.

I see this working well with spirit cairn or some other discard card

Strictly worse than Erase. (the urza's legacy one)

Madness cards cannot be so easily compared to their non-Madness counterparts. I would like to introduce everyone to three things: Card Advantage, alternative casting costs and "Discard a card from your hand:". (Note the colon, free abilities are great.)

I would call this and Fiery Temper better than Demystify and Lightning Bolt, but I also would build synergistic decks that have a real focus when using the former. If a non-Melvin built a deck, he'd prefer the latter, and the latter would probably work better for him.

Regarding the card: it sucks. But I'll take what I can get. White only has two Madness cards.
