Would be awesome at 2 mana.
Boy wouldn't that have been awesome? {B}{B} for 3-5 damage and a discard unless they dump their hand or if they have a kill spell?
I actually think it'd be quite fair and shake-up legacy a tiny bit (not much if it's {B}{B})

Incredibly stupid card. Those two abilities aren't even compatible. It's a rare and definitely overcosted, so it also insults your logic by its very existence.
0.5/5. Die.

This card fails at life. Overpriced and worst of all, it's special ability gimps itself until it just dies.

Wow, good one. This would be like printing a 10/10 creature with flying, trample, and double strike and "Your opponents' life totals can't change." Two totally counter-productive abilities.

Well, if your opponent is constantly drawing cards through Howling Mine or Font of Mythos or some other draw engine, maybe this card would be good...
...Nah.

Are you dip*** forgetting that this is meant for a R/B or B/U discard/draw archetype? Font of Mythos in addition to Howling Mine as well as Gravestorm, are all cards that go hand in hand with this, sure you wouldn't bring this to a type 1 tournament but its a hell of a lotta fun in casual. And yes this isn't worth rare status.

Sucks in 1vs1, but great in multiplayer. There, it's nearly always a 5/5 specter for 5, which is very solid. Sometimes 7/7, and in rare cases (or the right deck), something like 10/10. It's abilities ain't then counter-synergistic either. Simply choose one player, and keep attacking the others.

It'd be kinda cool if it was a suicide card, saying something like "power/toughness equal to number of cards in defending player's hand; when this deals combat damage to defending player, that player discards his or her hand."
then, it'd be a 2/2 with flying for {B}{B}{B} at all other times. turn 1, play swamp, dark ritual, this, then pray they don't kill it on their turn. Swing, they take seven minus the land and spell they played, and they lose their hand while this dies.
I dunno. it'd make an interesting rare.
