1. Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind Swapping flying for Prowess and -1/-1 doesn't seem enough to justify not tapping for your one-sided Howling Mine.
2. Why is this black? Did you mean Phyrexian Arena and forgot the life loss (and to add the cost of this ability).

I have problems with this, but not the ones you listed.
He's like a Nekusar, the Mindrazer on Steroids. I'd consider a P/T of 1/4, considering he deals damage with his ability, and pumps himself, as is, seems very powerful and easily one-shotable. I want to say you need to balance the draw/damage ability somehow, but without feeling to much like cards that already exist, it's hard to say how. Maybe triggering on NC spells instead of card draw?
Otherwise, it's cool design. Fits the shard perfectly, if you ask me.
Whenever you draw vs whenever an opponent draws is relevant. There's some overlap here, and in commander I'm not sure which is more powerful... but in normal magic, the former is more powerful as you control when you draw most times and want to draw, so getting an extra bonus for doing what you want is good.

I highly considered adding that. I literally made this card in like 5 minutes. I am a black mage at heart and added black to use it with Red and Blue.That's really all to that.

Yeah, I am not sure if it was undercosted or overcosted. I just aimed for a realm that I thought would be believable.
Well, it is a proxy, so... I took artwork from the Diablo 3 Collectors artbook. That being said, I am not going to put the effort to pinpoint the artist, as the focus should be on the card and it's abilities. The image is just something fancy to look at.
I appreciate both the positive and negative feedback from you guys. Hoping to make better made-up cards in the near future.
I have a weird thought to differentiate it from Niv-Mizzet and Nekusar: Jun,Dar, Mage of Madness1BUR
Prowess
Your hand size is reduced to five
Draw a card at the beginning of each opponent's upkeep
Whenever you discard a card, each opponent discards a card or takes 1 damage
2/3
(I had that last ability be forcing a discard and damage, but that might be too strong with wheel effects)

And google images is not proper artist credit.
