This card is for black since it has been getting hurt with the lack of draw.  The new Night's Whispers card is good and I think there should be another.

Night's Vengence
BBB
Sorcery
Choose a color.  Look at your opponent's hand and for each card of that color you may draw a card.

I think this might be good and am not sure if it is balanced or not.  I like it better than persecute since you would probably draw into more disruption.

Current Wording:
Exploit
2UU
Sorcery
Name a color target, opponent reveals his or her hand. You draw a card for each card of the chosen color revealed this way.

That makes no sense as a black card. The ability is 100% blue.

I was just going for something different but if I make it blue then UUU would seem like an odd casting cost.  In addition looking at your opponents hand seems like a black ability to me.  If it is changed to blue then how should the transition be made?

I like that it is really good.  Is there a thread of that already or is that for changing the card to blue?  I will most likely change it to that unless someone has any other suggestions.  I was really hoping it would stay black though.

Baleful Stare
2U
Sorcery
Target opponent reveals his hand. You draw a card for each mountain or red card in it.

Already exists, was reprinted in 7th. I can't see this going anywhere, unless you're after a blue Persecute 'mirror' effect. In that case, Exploit should be a sorcery.

Well if everything is going against me then it might as well be blue although I think that is a bad choice.  Expliot does seem a little overpowered as an instant.  If made a sorcery it would be fine.

If you'd rather have the card be black, then come up with a new ability for it.

Looking at people's hands is a blue ability--just look at telepathy, peek, etc. Black only looks at people's hands as part of a discard effect. And drawing cards is very blue.

OK well I guess this card was a dud so I will go with what was suggested by walkingdude and make Exploit.  It will have to be a sorcery though.
