Interesting. At three mana you can get pure forced discard of course; but this is also usable on yourself to... hmm, pay 1 or 2 cards, to draw a card and nothing else. Not exactly game breaking.

Suggest reducing the cost by one, to make it a tiny bit more desirable.

Hmm. So this is Coercion/Distress but as an instant, with the significant anti-cantrip rider. (The mode for using it on yourself is awful - worse than Reach through Mists in about three ways - so I'll ignore that.)

Reminds me of Vendilion Clique, which I think is a better way to do this. Staple this onto a 1/3 or 2/1 creature with flash.

But this is an uncommon, not a modern staple mythic that will be $70.

It also causes the card to be discarded rather than tucked.
