I have never seen trample on an Instant spell before. I guess this card deserves it. And hopefully something of the same thing can come out in a future set. Wizards of the coast has this funny way of experimenting and finding what we like and printing a card like it in standard. Just ask all the other players who were around when Unglued and Unhinged were released. 

For 1 red and 2 generic mana you get to deal 4 damage to a target creature. Normally players want to cast lower costing spells or spells that can also target other players. Burning someone can be fun after all. This card gives you the option of atomizing something from 1-4 toughness creatures but it's advantage is that it has trample and the excess burn can also be used to hit the target creatures controller. So if you just killed a 1/1 you also get to deal 3 damage to that creatures controller. So opponents better have big creatures on their side to shield them.

Otherwise this is going to be a through and through.
