A deck focused on controlling the board and disrupting your opponent's strategy would benefit from including Baleful Mastery, as it offers a versatile removal option that can be cast at a reduced cost. While the downside of allowing an opponent to draw a card can be mitigated by timing the spell effectively, there are potentially better removal options available depending on the specific deck archetype and format. However, Baleful Mastery could still see play in certain control or midrange decks looking for additional removal options.
