Yow! Seems undercosted compared to Tomorrow, Azami's Familiar.

The familiar always gives you the choice, and works with other forms of card draw. This gives the opponent the choice, and doesn't.

So it might be reasonable costs. (Also, you know, costing low enough it might actually see play.) But I do think it'd be better on a creature body.

I'm conflicted on this working across multiple phases, too. On the one hand, that's a potentially scary ability if you can find a way to not have it in play for your draw step. On the other, two card combo to draw the worst 2 cards of the top 3? Maybe fair.

Good suggestions, I like the idea of making it a creature, a 1/4 perhaps? And I don't think the blinking shenanigans really warrant making it all happen during the draw step.

V: This doesn't give the opponent the choice - that's the Fact or Fiction illusion. This always gives you the best card from the top 3, and if the opponent guessed wrong it also gives you another one of them as well.

But I guess Tomorrow was fairly expensive for what it did. Being a bit cheaper than a Kamigawa-block card isn't really a crime :)
