    Whenever you cast a sorcery spell, you may draw a card. If you do, discard a card.

    crazy powerful. Also, I know lootering is being spread into red, but this still feels a little more blue.

    I think that maybe if it were "instant or sorcery" and/or "draw a card" (without the discard effect) then yeah it would be blue.

    and it is kinda powerful.

    The ability is great. I think it should just be a 1/1 though. As of now, it seems like a red version of Bob.

    well that would be more blue. Frankly it just reminds me of riddle smith, which is why it feels blue to me.

    Dark Confidant was Bob Maher's invitational card.

    I like it, but it seems red looter effects are drifting more towards the discard first, draw second. Don't know why, but I just realized I don't like that as much as plain ol' looting at all.

    It's part of the "randomness" that red is traditionally known for. Like Rummaging Goblin, he throws something out before he grabs the next thing in the chest, not first looking at all he has and determining which is the best to keep.

    You aren't supposed to like it, but real looting is still in Blue while this is Red.
