That sequence seems like a risky one: a sufficient removal spell will give the remover a 3-for-1.

A great card for casual play indeed. A possible first-turn 5/5 is always good.

If he's in Innistrad,I'll be thrilled.

The temptation is to cheat him into play with rituals, tutors, and delve on turn one or two. Sounds nice, but can yield horrible card disadvantage if he's bounced or removed. Good creature, but play him intelligently or you'll self-pwn. My vote is splash black in a red burn deck or a blue counterspell/bounce/control deck to play him.

He's basically black's version of Tarmogoyf. Really good creature, I run 3 in my B/U/G control list.

So, no Delve...yet. With Delver of Secrets, though, I'm betting on a comeback in Dark Ascension!

Turn One: Swamp, Dark Ritual, One With Nothing, Delve.
And they said that card was useless ;)

Hmmm.....
I saw a DailyMTG article somewhere that mentioned this artwork was supposed to be a guess at what future Demon cards in Magic would look like.
Kind of reminds me of Withengar Unbound. Coincidence? Not likely!

Potentially a 5/5 Flyer for 
.
Requires a bit of an investment, but hey, Demons are a cool tribal and this guy's big without any major disadvantages aside from cost.
