Does not seem worth including the only instance of {c} in a cost for this card.

Also kinda hard to bootstrap it :)

dimir would not add mana, this card doent make a lot of sense... Maybe change it to something like draw/discard/lifeloss/removal, y'know? something blue black does... otherwise that ability is spot on but mana ramp is not in those colors

my bad. I guess discard is my next choice.

Cards with hybrid costs should fit all of their color combinations.

Offensive discard and flying work in black; only flying works in blue, discard not so much.

Two cards worth of discard are also quite a haul for one mana - consider tha the combat damage restriction is quite easily achieved thanks to flying (and a low enough mana cost that an opponent will usually not have a blocker for a flier).

Compare Brain Weevil (though it's not top of the power level just a clear comparisson).

You could increase the cost of this to... maybe three mana? The simplest trick to get this into a roughly reasonable state both for color mechanic fits and balance would probably be changing the mana cost from {u/b} to {u}{b}.

Alternatively adding {u}{b} to the activation cost to keep the cmc at one - if so desired.

on 25 Jun 2018 by Froggychum:

Maybe to keep it hybrid, rather than having offensive discard, I could have say, perhaps mill 3 on the opponent?

Also I think an activation cost is something i'd prefer, it puts down the power level more than a higher cmc...

I think now it might be too complex for common...
