Best combo I can think of in standard:
Turn 1: Arbor Elf
Turn 2: Renegade Krasis
Turn 3: Master Biomancer
Turn 4: Giant Growth on Biomancer + Fungal Sprouting
You'll end up with:
1/1, 7/6, 2/4 (buffed to 4/7), 9/9, 8/8, 7/7, 6/6, 6/6
Alternate Turn 4:
Turn 4: Burst of Strength or Hunger of the Howlpack on Biomancer + Fungal Sprouting
Assuming that morbid didn't trigger (otherwise we'd need a scientific calculator):
1/1, 8/7, 7/9, 8/8, 8/8, 8/8, 8/8
Now just hope that you are not up against Boros Reckoner.

I want to like this guy, but he's too slow. People are already proxy-testing him and he's losing games against a lot of what is currently good in standard. He might be aimed at some kind of a combo deck in the future maybe, but I don't see why you'd want to be encouraged not to play your creatures until turn 5 where they can be bigger. And I don't see mid-range deck wanting him either.

I was hoping for something akin to a "Final Experiment" for the Simic mythic, but this is nice too. Maybe Dragon's Maze....

William Murai only has a few cards under his belt but I will average their art at 4.8/5. I think they REALLY should have given this guy one more little ability and made him a legend to add to the pool of {G}{U} EDH generals since his art is worthy and dropping a second one on the field as a 4/6 Elf Wizard Mutant is not very good anyway.

Misprint! They used 'as' in the place of 'is'. *Point point point.*

With this out, if I then cast a Fathom Mage, will i be allowed to draw a card for every counter put on my mage via this card?

Mythic rarity. The bane of budget players.

Jan 24th 2013: I'm just going to make a prediction here that Master Biomancer will be the break out card at the upcoming pro tour Gatecrash and consequently after the tournament be worth at least double of what it is now.
For example: T3 biomancer (off an arbor elf or something), T4 rancor and cast huntmaster of the fells. No Verdict? GG.
The ability is too explosive and stacks with itself to boot that I just can't see how this card isn't simply out of this world.
5/5.
