Darksteel Relic is actually not the best way to use this. Even of you use an indestructible card, it can still get selected and still waste its activation for the turn.
A better choice is some way to give the permanent you control Shroud after targeting it, since (per the rulings) that just removes it from consideration while letting the rest of the ability continue as normal (meaning it must destroy one of your opponent's cards.) So if you pick one of your cards and one of your opponent's, then give your card shroud, your opponent's card will always be destroyed, and this lets you destroy one of your opponent's cards of your choice per turn.
Lightning Greaves is probably your best choice, as it costs nothing to equip, making it easy to re-equip it to this each turn. Cloak and Dagger and Whispersilk Cloak work as well.
Even with that combo, I'm of the opinion that the six mana cost is a bit steep for practical ... (see all)

How do you determine randomly between three things? two is easier, just a flip of the coin, but three?
It looks like great fun, but I would have like it more if it either was a 5/5, or had cost 2RR and was much smaller

Only Red Card that can(possibly) destroy target enchantments, I love it simply for that.

One of thsoe cards that makes you think, "WTF is wrong with the magic devs?" It costs FAR too much, is capable of destroying your permanents, can't target anything with shroud, has too high of P/T (in turn raising the cost), can't target lands. Why the hell is it rare? Is there a single perk to playing with this POS?

I think this should be an enchantment, not a creature...
