Rationale
4cmc instant — look at top 4, put 2 in hand and 2 in graveyard, lose 2 life. A solid card-selection spell that doubles as mild self-mill; the A- prefix indicates an Arena-only digital rebalance. Commander-illegal but strong in Brawl control/midrange as instant-speed card advantage. The graveyard fueling makes it a minor signature in self-mill and graveyard-matters shells where the discarded cards aren't wasted.
Learnings (3)
A-Demon's Due is an Arena-only digital rebalance of a card — the 'A-' prefix means it exists only in the digital client and is not legal in paper Commander, only in Brawl.

The two cards placed in the graveyard are chosen by the controller, making this both selective card draw and a targeted self-mill tool — useful for setting up graveyard strategies at instant speed.

At 4 mana this competes with Fact or Fiction in Brawl; it is deterministic (you see all 4 cards and choose) but the opponent cannot split, making it stronger in 1v1 than Fact or Fiction when ahead on information.
