Ignorant Bliss - I haven't yet gotten to use this card in RGD draft. Although I've played partially Rakdos decks a few times, this card has simply never shown up. Honestly, I'm looking forward to the chance at trying it. Being able to use it to make a couple Gobhobblers briefly more effective and regenerative is nice. Being able to make your burn spells more effective is nice. Seriously pumping up Demon's Jesters is nice. There's enough effective Hellbent cards to make this cantrip worth playing. To say nothing of combining it with Delirium Skeins to wipe your opponent's hand while leaving yours unscathed.

Constructed Rating - 2.8
Casual Rating - 3.0

For two mana, you get Hellbent on command, plus an extra card later. If you really have trouble getting to Hellbent, or your opponents are running a lot of discard, or (preferrably) both, it might be worth it. Otherwise, forget it.

Constructed-- 1
Casual-- 1.5

Um...I guess with hellbent, it's kind of a trick. But it only lasts one turn, so you really couldn't plan any deck around it...you really need a better solution for Hellbent. As a guard against discard, again, only a temp fix. Not play worthy in limited or casual.

Constructed - 1.5
