Always pick hippo. Always. You never know when it's gonna come in handy.

Or wizard decks. Or sliver decks. Or shapeshifter decks. Or cat decks. Or eldrazi decks. Or rat decks. Or fungus decks. Or insect decks. Or ally decks. Or...

well, DUH they had to make it weak. it's CONTROL MAGIC ON A STICK.
what'd you expect?

a 5/5 flying with 'When cardname is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, gain control of target creature.'

years later, looks at Kamigawa spoilers:
Keiga, The Tide Star
