What if you allowed summoning of a creature card in your hand instead of having to draw one. The creature remains at 0/1 until the start (or end) of your next turn so it is vulnerable to the opponent's CC for 1-turn. That way this card could actually be used strategically, for example in a no-pillar deck using Novas to pay for high cost creatures. The downside of that would be that you no longer draw a card, making it slower to play (though if you're waiting for a good creature to Mindgate/Rewind, it'd actually speed it up).
If the creature were going to remain at 0 HP and die at the end of the turn, it would be a decent Death card that when used, causes the next creature played (by either player) to enter at 0/0 instead (and likely die at the end of the turn, unless buffed).
