What an extremely cool card. Although I play black, I'd love to have one of these some day.

Great card to finish off any mill deck. One of my three main decks is a blue/white mermill deck. Running four of these, 4 drowner of secrets, and 4 mind funerals, along with an array of other smaller merfolk to hold it all together I'm able to mill through a persons deck in a maximum of 6 turns. Great card.

Freed from the Real to remove say 15 cards, then play Guile, now fifteen of their cards are coming into play under your control :)

thinking of throwing this into my merfolk deck, can easily be tapped with drowner of secrets. love this idea.

Wow, this card could be dangerous. Not only is it a 2/2 for UU, but it has a pretty nasty effect that can be abused quite easily. SImply find some way to tap this creature (Freed from the Real anyone?) and you have a killer mill option mixed with a useful Counterspell option. This is a game-rattling card.
