Yesterday's card was great for Omedus decks, today's
card is great AGAINST Omedus decks. Unfortunately,
that's about the only use this card has. Sideboard
in it if your metagame is filled with Omedus and
discard related decks, otherwise don't use it. If
one day WoW gets a mechanic like Magic's
Hellbent(Your cards get bonuses for having no cards
in hand), this card might go up in price.
Limited- 1/5
Constructed- 1.5/5- Sideboard is the only use for
it.
Casual- 1/5
Raid- 1/5

Well this is an interesting card, I think it can be
useful for certain things like discard tactics or
something looking for your hand to be empty. If
there were a card that caused you to discard your
hand and then to draw a new set, this card would be
TNT on a stick. It’s a also a weapon but not much of
one. Combo decks might learn to love this card.
Constructed: 2/5 (must be in the right deck for the
right purpose but still it’s a weapon)
Sealed: 1.5/5 (I can’t see reasons to use this
ability in sealed)
Raid: 1/5 (combos aren’t needed in this format
unless the do 100+ dmg)

Interesting card. I highly doubt you'll be using
this card to attack, but instead for it's power.
It's a fun card to use against Priest decks. You
said you played a Mind Spike? No problem! Pay 1,
exhaust. Remove my hand from the game. Now what card
would you like me to discard? Oh, that's right! I
have no cards in my hand. Muahaha! Yeah. Lol. This
card will do awesome against Priest decks.
I’m sure there is a good use for this card, I just
haven’t found it yet. The only thing I can really
think of is a side deck option for when you go
against priest and warlocks. Since those decks are
all about discarding cards from your opponent this
could help a bit. Like many other cards in the game
I’m sure this card will get a use in future sets.
