Definitely a sweet card. Whoever thinks this could *replace* Bomat Courier is crazy though (even if you need more Pirates). This will very likely get run alongside Bomat Courier, but I can't imagine this being run over Bomat Courier in a mono red deck.
Love the design of that card. Also that early on (not that you want to use it too early, anyway) you get the draw effec when Scry is relatively weak (because you may still be in need of lands), but after you used it three times, you're probably well set in the lategame where scrying is a lot more powerful than it is in the beginning.
In Constructed, Burn was basically never a "combat trick" during your opponent's combat. It's mostly just a Removal of finisher spell; and there have been times when you couldn't really be punished by playing the Burn Spell during your opponent's turn instead of during your main phase, but for the most part, you want to kill the creatures during your turn anyway unless you think you can screw up combat for your opponent by playing it during his turn, but that just happens so much rarer than in Limited. So having to play your removal on your turn on stuff you need to kill on your opponent's turn at the latest, anyway, is not really such a big downside, which is why the Prowess cards are still pretty good.
