Ha! This has been white (Repentance) and black (Kiku's Shadow); it's a bit odd to see it in red, but it's hard to say any "deal damage" instant is really out-of-pie for red, so okay.
Nice that if X=1, this is precisely Act of Treason :) Good rare. Sometimes I'd rather have Insurrection, but sometimes not.
Carnophage / Vampire Lacerator in red? I suppose.
Wow. That's quite a strong Riot Spikes.
Since Walking Corpse has opened the way, may as well follow in it, right?
Tireless indeed. That's a lot of potential card advantage, but I think you've managed to push the costs high enough that it's not unbalanced. It'll dominate the occasional very long limited game, but shouldn't do much worse than that.
Yikes. This would feel a little fairer on a creature rather than an enchantment. In a dedicated deck this will be "No creatures for you" even more quickly than Call to the Grave or suchlike.
Alternatively, at least give it a self-sacrifice clause like Call to the Grave / Pestilence / Porphyry Nodes / etc.
Very nice flavour text.
It's extremely rare for black to get unconditional card advantage like this. Virtually every black "draw a card" effect has some life loss or other sacrifice involved. Look at Phyrexian Rager for example. (The only exception is cantrip spells, which every colour gets.)
...On the other hand, I suppose, the cycle of runners is fairly strong in flavour, and does good things for the set.
I think it'd still be possible to give this "and lose a life", and tie it in with the "undead runners" flavour. Of course, then Makar Runners would look just as out-of-place.
Interesting mirror of Moonglove Winnower.
I think this'd be cleaner if it just forced discard equal to the number of psyche counters. It's less good, certainly - it could probably get the extra point of toughness to match Hypnotic Specter - but it'd just be a cleaner design.
