This card is apparently very good in OTJ limited, often representing a 3-for-1 for as little as a single black mana. I feel this definitely deserves a chance!

It's the lovechild of Liliana's Specter and Gurmag Angler! I think it looks great.
Kind of reminds me of

I wanted to sing quick praises to Lively Dirge. The Entomb mode has been relevant in testing more often than I had thought, from tutoring a good four drop in the later stages of a game to triggering Sidisi, Brood Tyrant!
it really melts face. it usually finds its way into my favorite/more successful decks. it was getting passed a lot more often at the beginning, now i have to make do with ambush gigapede where it's harder to get the 2+ for 1.

the 2UR explosion is a sleeper hit, too, it's quite good, the modality is real, but a combination of it seems like maybe too much mana for its effect?, and red is generally a less solid color to go into, with many mediocre commons.
the green critters with effects that look like Ward are better than they seemed during previews.
some of the mounts (lookin at you, sheep!) seem good because mounts.dec is good, but #notallmounts.
the 1/3 lifelink is a great thing to buff, you can tempt out removal and then get a card back, or just have a big ol' "wall" that can also attack.
i love the WU Flash signpost, it kinda reminds me of some of the cards that people use to try to make UG Flash be a thing.
Except, the way it's written, is kinda "batched" so that it's also an incentive for spending your mana on alternate casting costs (suspend, madness, flashback, whatever! don't need to use Plot nor even instants/flash if you don't wanna.)
i don't know how many Stetsons i can stomach in my cube. i used to think the answer was gonna be 0, but i might be able to tolerate 2 or even 3 of 'em. And i love the raven and its lack of hat!
