If you have no cards in hand as Lord Windgrace's first ability resolves, you'll discard nothing then you'll draw one card.

Wizards of the Coast 13 Jul 2018

While resolving Lord Windgrace's last ability, you create six Cat Warrior tokens even if fewer than six nonland permanents are destroyed. However, if you choose any targets for the ability and each of them becomes an illegal target, the ability doesn't resolve and you don't create any tokens.
