Hm. What combination of mana cost and life makes this best? I want it to be less good than Blightning, and about the same as Mental Agony, but not exactly the same so I can justify a different flavour.

3BB->2BB, four -> equal to the number of discarded

OK, I think this is more interesting. It's rarely going to be much damage, but I think the flavour is better, and it feels like it fits into a deck better.

What's similar in the past?

If this is at all effective, it should probably be uncommon.

May be more useful if it's cheaper and "discard one card", though that makes the "number of cards" seem more arbitrary. Could tie to "put into graveyard" instead of discarded. Could be lose life equal to twice that number (at higher rarity). Could tie to number of cards/spells in graveyard?

What amuses me is that it's an inverse Cerebral Vortex :)
