Cast Away Doubt

A possible control refill, but three-mana sorcery speed and 2 self-damage are costly; it is well below Stock Up's 84-point card-advantage benchmark.

Could be wrong if A black attrition or life-total shell from the unrevealed set could make the opponent damage materially more valuable.

Three-mana draw-two is a testable grind tool for Golgari Midrange, but life loss and no immediate board impact are expensive in Pioneer.

Could be wrong if It could earn a stronger role if a black midrange shell needs raw cards more than tempo.

The rate is too slow for Modern: it spends turn three without affecting the board or stack, and 2 damage rarely repays that tempo loss.

Could be wrong if A spell-count or life-total synergy shell could value the combined draw and damage more than expected.

Legacy's cheap selection and punishing tempo make a three-mana sorcery draw-two a long shot, even with minor reach attached.

Could be wrong if Fast mana or a niche damage-trigger payoff could create a narrow use not visible in the supplied context.

It offers genuine two-card refueling for a grindy Jund Wildfire shell, but three mana at sorcery speed and 2 self-damage are substantial costs.

Could be wrong if Pauper's eventual speed and available black card-draw competition may leave no room for this rate.

In group-slug decks, two cards plus 2 damage to each opponent is a reasonable refill; without damage payoffs, it is merely replaceable draw.

Could be wrong if The density and quality of life-loss and opponent-damage payoffs will determine whether it is more than a niche inclusion.

Drawing two cards for three mana is normally playable, but losing 2 life and taking turn three off can be punishing; opponent damage mostly aids races.

Could be wrong if Unknown draft speed, removal density, and black's ability to stabilize make its actual pick order uncertain.
