Would like to request feedback for this card. I don't know whether the costs are correct, or if the 1 life damage will even matter. It may just be an annoying tacked on thing. This is pretty hard for Terran though, as they need to keep the identity of their morph creatures in.
Costs look about right by comparison with Viper's Kiss.
BTW, I'm not sure it'll work to make comments like this while the set is private. I think most site users primarily operate via Recent Changes, and the cards that have seen recent traffic; comments made while the set is private will be effectively invisible. (Okay, highlighted ones will show up on the set's front page. Maybe that'll be enough. You'll likely still get less engagement overall though.)
previously: Whenever enchanted creature's controller draws a card, that player loses 1 life unless he or she reveals that card.
Changed to a static ability, because the person I played with was irritated that you have to play it like miracles (you have to peek first at the card separately from your hand; it's very easy to forget this). Now plays easier.
It's usually played as a kill spell though (or a finisher). Question: If you play this on a 1/1 creature, do you have enough time to peek at the opponent's hand before his creature dies?
better art. still reused, but better
says this is common but the render has an uncommon symbol
You do get a very brief look at the top card, yes.
Doombringer: Thanks, will fix the symbol. This really should be common.
Alex: Thanks. Thinking of making this "enchanted creature's controller play with his or her hand revealed" a la Telepathy. Not liking the rules ambiguity though.
To prevent rule confusion and tone down complexity a tiny bit why not either add reminder text to the current version or turn it int a enter and leave the battlefield trigger?

changed to triggered ability to avoid rules issue of casting this on a 1-toughness creature and asking "do I get to Peek at your hand?" Also updated picture.
you may
Before:
Parasite
Enchantment - Aura [c]
Enchant creature
Enchanted creature gets -1/-1.
Whenever enchanted creature attacks or blocks, you may look at its controller's hand.
nonland card -> card
Now that it makes you just discard any two cards - does revealing serve much of a purpose anymore?
returned back to targeted discard, to be more in line with "parasite" name granting vision
