For Challenge # 106. I know some Timmys won't like this idea, but, personally, I think it's a pretty cute way to deal with the "We're running out of ways to overlap these colors" problem.
The idea behind the cursed charm is they give you your choice of punishment. And while 'Draw three cards' couldn't be a mono-black spell, the end result of what you're forced to cast ends up looking rather black. I suppose you could always argue that choosing "Discard four cards. Lose 3 life." isn't a blue spell. Trifles.
I wanted to cost this at , but I assume Ambition's Cost costs four for a reason. Maybe not.
You can either draw 3 and discard 4 cards, which is reasonable; or draw 3 cards and lose 3 life, also reasonable; or discard 4 cards and lose 3 life, which will probably never be used. I think the design is fine, but it might be too odd for an entire cycle. To make it more clear, I'd probably use the template "[Good option]. Then choose 1: [bad option 1]; or [bad option 2]." It really isn't a charm at that point, though.

I don't understand this. Am I missing something?

Oh, oops. I missed the "Choose two." My fault.
