Definetly going into my Grixis deck, which involves a lot of discard and can always do with some extra draws.

I really like this card. In decks that heavily abuse their graveyard, this reads draw 2 at instant for 2 mana. This is definately going in a few of my decks.
(Hint: past in flames likes this card a lot. ;-))

I'm sad that this card is so good for the decks I want to play and has such utterly disturbing art. I'm going to spend far too much time staring at this one, and then just when I think it's gone I'm going to have to flash it back...
Probably not the best for counterburn style decks, since those decks tend to hold their most valuable cards for longer, meaning you have a higher chance of discarding them since they spend more turns in your hand. Plus holding those cards means you're less likely to pitch one of the useless lands you'll usually have once your card advantage starts coming on line. But it's still a hell of a card for plenty of decks, and can effectively be Think Twice 5-8, which is spectacular.

This card is perfectly good if you cast it Hellbent (with no cards in hand). It would be interesting with Thought Reflection however.

Funny how this is almost the same as think twice.
Except for: a) in a graveyard synergie. b) in nonred decks. c) if you are not hellbent. d) in nonblue decks.
Given that red has so few good cards in EDH this might actually be useful there.

I want to make a deck that can win using all the cards named "desperate." Desperation.dec

Use this in a R/U Burning Vengeance deck that relies on Flashback shenannigans, as well a graveyard fun (Chandra's Phoenix?).
Draw 2 cards + discarding something that you'll end up using later (random, sure, but it's the most likely outcome) = pure card advantage.

It seems like it would be better to just run Think Twice.

If you can play it, it is much better than think twice. Just try it ;)
