This card can help such a deck by providing card draw while also dealing damage to the opponent, potentially speeding up the game and putting pressure on the opponent. However, there are better cards that offer similar effects, such as Sign in Blood, which allows the player to draw two cards without losing life. Overall, while Painful Lesson can be situationally useful, there are more efficient options available that may be more suitable for competitive play.
