Pot of Pestilence
Normal Spell
When this card resolves: Banish this card, then during your next Standby Phase, draw 1 card and return this banished card to your hand. You can only activate the effect of "Pot of Pestilence" once per turn. Your opponent can negate this card's effect by sending 1 random card in their hand to the Graveyard.

Very unique effect indeed...

But in my eyes it looks like "Your opponent randomly discards 1 card".

Is that really a bad thing when so many other effects do it?

I just wanted generic draw that didn't promote FTKs but also came with an actual drawback of sorts. idk if I went too far with it returning though.

Discarding instead of sending would give it more of a downside. Which in this card's case, may not necessarily make it more balanced, but it's always good to take it into consideration.

It's different. Not necessarily new, since it's basically a hodgepodge of effects (A broken Upstart capped by a Dark Scheme downside). I like the line of thinking though.

The only moment you can use this card's draw effect is either when your opponent has no hand or your opponent has his trump card in his hand.
Other than that, its pretty decent.
