Generally, all of the charms are good in the right type of deck. Taste is a different thing. Grixis Charm, for example, is actually pretty good if you know how to play with it. I'm not saying that it's the best, cuz it doesn't generate much card advantage, but on the other hand, I don't think you could call it the worst either. It all depends on your board position at the time you play it.
But with the Esper Charm, I must say that it's one of those cards that just begs to be played with. You can draw step lock your opponent for 1 turn, instantly draw cards and destroy a pesky enchantment. Not bad at all.

Well. It's easy to see that it's a Consult the Necrosages with a demystify added for W, but it's easy to miss that this one is instant speed!

To both of the people who said "worst charm" - I'd be forced to say that either you are a major troll, or are terrible at evaluating cards.
This and Bant charm are tied for the best, with Naya and Jund coming after. Grixis is okay, but it is obviously the worst.
3 Mana for 2 cards in standard, along with 3 mana for 2 discards. The fact that this can also hose enchantments is just icing on the cake.

Consult the Necrosages + option of Demystify for 
. I can't comment on how Esper-y it feels, but it is a good card.

The only time you will be unhappy with this card is when you can't cast it, that is what charms do.

Instant-speed discard is hard to come by, while instant speed destruction and draw is pretty standard. This card definitely has it's place in any deck that can produce the needed mana, because you'll always take either 2 extra draw or 2 discard on opponent's draw, and you can demystify in a pinch, too.

Not every day that you see instant discard like this. Especially seeing that this is one of six, one of those is in an Un-Set, and most of the others are either weak or conditional.

This is... amazing.
I mean, I could literally only find one other card that discards 2 at instant speed, and it costs 4{B}{B}! But for the same price you can insta-draw 2 and get rid of an Oblivion Ring! Sign me up, the only downside is the cost, and that just makes me want to use it more!
