Broken Concentration, Instant, designed by Clint Cearley first released in Apr, 2016 in the set Shadows over Innistrad. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.
This card, Broken Concentration, would be beneficial in a control deck that aims to disrupt the opponent's game plan by countering key spells. While it offers the flexibility of being cast for its madness cost if discarded, there are more efficient counterspells available in formats like Magic: the Gathering. Cards like Counterspell or Mana Leak may be better options due to their lower mana cost and immediate impact on the game. However, Broken Concentration could still see play in certain situations where the madness ability provides an advantage or fits well within a specific deck strategy.

Cards are discarded in a Magic game only from a player’s hand. Effects that put cards from a player’s library into that player’s graveyard do not cause those cards to be discarded.

Casting a spell for its madness cost doesn’t change its mana cost or its converted mana cost. You just pay the madness cost instead.

If you choose not to cast a card with madness when the madness triggered ability resolves, it’s put into your graveyard. You don’t get another chance to cast it later.

If you discard a card with madness while resolving a spell or ability, it moves immediately to exile. Continue resolving that spell or ability—the card is not in your graveyard at this time. Its madness trigger will be placed onto the stack once that spell or ability has completely resolved.

Madness works independently of why you’re discarding the card. You could discard it to pay a cost, because a spell or ability tells you to, or even because you have too many cards in your hand at the end of your turn. You can’t discard a card with madness just because you want to, though.
