Very nice flavour text.

Random discard is disliked, instant discard is powerful. Both at common seem a bit much.

It's still a pretty mediocre discard spell. If buffing it up a bit makes it seem playable, that makes me even happier with it as a skill tester.

Yeah. Given that Funeral Charm was instant-speed discard for 1 mana with two other choices, this seems fine to me.

I'm not sure "special printing from a set 7 years ago" should be held up as an example of modern design principles.
