I was playing the Izzet deck on Duels of the Planeswalkers, online against Tezzeret's deck. They got three of these out. Izzet is counterburn. I had Niv Mizzet, the Firemind on the field, and proceeded to stomp them ruthlessly into the dirt.... Good times!

This is great in discard decks, when you need your opponent to have a steady supply of cards in hand. The extra draw you get is icing on the cake =)

Politically, this is one of the best cards in the game. The neat thing in multiplayer is, if you play this card, you've likely built a deck which is helped quite a bit by it, or needs the draw power from artifacts (W/R control comes to mind), so much so that the cards your opponent('s) draw are irrelevant to some degree. In multiplayer, most people see this played and stop attacking the guy with Howling Mine. While that's cool, it can be a pretty bad decision if that deck is a combo deck searching for it's last combo piece to win, ect.
Still, a fun card and if nothing else will make a game interesting.

I was playing a casual gauntlet with some friends, and one of them asked if she could borrow my collection of Mox cards. I said sure; we stuck little pieces of Post-It on the front of mine so we'd know which ones belonged to me, and off we went. Turns out she had an "overdraw" deck with three copies of this card plus plenty of land-and-creature wipes (so she just used Mox for mana while the rest of us were screwed), plus cards like Black Vise, Font of Mythos, and Kederekt Parasite to continuously screw us. And as impossible as it was for us to beat her...we couldn't stop LAUGHING! We all looked ridiculous juggling hands of 20 cards. It's just so much fun to play with this.
