Ok, well at least for a cost is kinda easy to pay.
Not super easy, actually. It gives your other creatures that ward as well, so losing 10% of your life every time you target something against a red deck adds up.
Nowhere to run is legal though, so hopefully that can counter it if it becomes a problem.
But this is going to be targeted immediately. Best case scenario, you end equal in cards and lose just 2 lifes to it. If the cost were mana, the tempo would make it harder to remove.
"Opponent discards a card and loses 2 life" for 1R is not horrible. No idea if burn is anywhere near the meta but if it is this is gonna be in there.
Worst case, against a deck with no counters and no creature interaction it's a bear that you can side out game 2.
