The first thing almost any modern player will say is WHAT IS THIS DOING IN BLUE !.
Well, blue has a bit of a tradition of one damage effects, mostly thanks to this card. "Tim" (not Timmy) effects are named after this card, because, as wikipedia says on the page about Tim The Enchanter :-

because of his ability to damage any target (as Tim the Enchanter summons fiery explosions anywhere). Recently, the nickname has broadened in definition, becoming a term for any card with the same ability as Prodigal Sorcerer.
We can see plenty of older cards where blue has the "Tim" ability, including Hermetic Study, Mawcor, and even as modern as Psionic Gift.
Tim really does feel totally out of place in blue in terms of the modern game, this is very very m... (see all)

I remember putting four in a blue Wizard deck just because I loved that they ping'd. Simply amazing in budget Wizard decks for that one reason.
