With Commoner, it's unclear why you would ever choose to discard from your hand. If you discard from the top of your deck; you have a chance at it being the same as a Peddler. If you discard from your hand, then it is never really better than a plain cantrip; not counting edge cases of draw-to-x or other reasons you actually want to discard cards.
Audience might need some clarification on what counts as "numbers". Is it only numeral? Or would either "2" or "two" count? I assume things like "twice" aren't numbers.... it's a bit weird because King's Court says "three times" while Throne Room says "twice". But it's an arbitrary wording difference, so it would be awkward for one to be affected while the other isn't... if the next printing of Throne Room is changed to say "two times" then suddenly it behaves differently? Similar things existing with the difference between "discard a card" and "discard 2 cards"... same meaning normally; but suddenly different behavior. Also, is
a number, or just a symbol?
My guess is that despite it looking like just a Throne Room variant; it would end up being super-crazy in some situations.
