With a properly built deck, it's actually relatively difficult to empty your hand, given that it's generally accepted that you have the same number of enhancements as you have characters. You're just as likely to have a hand full of enhancements when you draw Mayhem as a hand full of things you can put onto the FoP, especially since you keep enhancements in hand longer than other cards (usually). Maybe it's just the kind of decks I use, but I don't frequently "use it all" in my hand.

maybe im a bit biased in this area, as my forte are speed decks and i usually cater my decks to having that big payoff from mayhem. i cant recall a single game last season where it had failed me. however, when i do build decks more defense-orientated or decks that have lots of hand-clog i do neglect to put mayhem in those decks.

It's also useful for general hilarity:
At Nats in T1 2P, my friend was playing some guy who had two redeemed souls.  He began a rescue attempt, and then declared he'd win, revealing a ITBattle winner and SoG/NJ.
So my friend plays Mayhem, and goes on to win.

Not typical, but funny nonetheless.
