Once per turn: You can discard up to 2 cards; this card gains 500 ATK for each card you discarded until your next Standby Phase, also, during next Standby Phase, destroy a number of cards on the field equal to the number of cards you discarded.

Concept and Wordplay:

Spoiler

Portmanteau= Toaster + Terror

So it is suppose to be a possessed toaster https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toaster

The effect even accentuates the concept much like a toaster as in you when discard cards you are "inserting the bread" and during the next Standby Phase you get the end result of the toaster... Toast!

Such an odd interpretation for a toaster. My first thought was a Wind-Up Rabbit-like effect to blink 2 monsters on board and bring them back 1~2 turns later with maybe an slight stat boost to represent the bread getting toasted and thus, tougher.
Regardless, this mostly looks like a card that discard-happy decks would play to set their combos going. Otherwise, the discard 2 for a delayed destruction seems undesirable, as, for offense purposes, the opponent can easily make use of the targeted cards as fodder before losing them. Not to mention the destruction, albeit non-targeting, is mandatory and doesn't restrict from which side the cards are being destroyed, so if the opponent clears its board or already is in a losing position, you would end up taking the damage. Also it allows for combos with your own destruction-happy or floaty cards, balancing the drawbacks a little, but if you play this to pop your own cards, there are faster and more card-advantageous alternatives out there.
