@KillerWhisky, this card is more dependent on the battlefield state than most suspend cards, and complaining that they don't have any effect on it is to miss the point of suspend. Much like with morph, it's cool to get an effect from it, but that's not the point at all(although some sort of morph/suspend alt-trap mechanic would be awesome. I suspend this face down for, say, 2-3 mana, then pay the trap-cost to flip it and use it whenever.)
EDIT: I hear what your saying, and sorry for using the word 'complain'; I just dislike it when people's arguments are "this card is bad because you can't play it competitively", which is almost as bad as "this card is bad because doomblade/disenchant". If you like it, run it in a format or environment where you can do it effectively.
I just play a lot of very casual games, including a large amount of EDH/Commander, so I personally haven't really seen how poorly suspend does competitively (then again, that's why I avoid competitive magic, it's just to... (see all)

Play with Riku of Two Reflections.
The turn he comes out of suspension, you will have loads of free mana open to copy him.

Darn, you stole my comment. But yes, I do always shout that whenever I finish suspending him and bring him onto the field. It's a fun moment for everyone, especially me.

Each Time Spiral card was an homage to at least one previously printed card.
This card is referencing Tidal Kraken.

Just did a Time Spiral/Planar Chaos sealed deck with the Magic club I play with. Between this and Draining Whelk, I dominated.

Doom Blade? It's blue we're talking about. If they have a doomblade ready, you should have a counterspell to deal with it.
