Another great lord that passes the tribal lord test- I want to put him in my changeling deck. Splashable, stat boost and cool ability? Check, check and check.

Such a great cornerstone for elementals. Use Flamekin Harbinger to fetch a Supreme Exemplar, then drop it with the Soulstoke for two mana and attack for 11 in the air. If you champion the harbinger... it'll be back at the end of the turn to grab another exemplar!
That's pretty ham-fisted play, though. In general the soulstoke gives all your guys a cheaper evoke cost and lets them get in an attack, too while they're at it. Of course, it also gives all your harbingers and smokebraiders some teeth. And who cares that you're dropping guys in the graveyard, anyway, when you can drop a hasty 5/4 Reveillark for a turn to bring them back? Though if you're really interested in keeping creatures around, just drop Maelstrom Wanderer. Two mana for an 8/6 with haste and probably two other free creatures that stick around. See if your opponent even lasts long enough for Horde of Notion... (see all)

How have I not commented on this yet? Oh well, no matter. Nova Chaser is a nice target, but Supreme Examplar is arguably nicer in a lot of situations. There are a lot of tricks the Soulstoke is capable of, including but not limited to:
- Dropping a champion at instant speed to rescue itself or something else from removal
- Dropping a champion at instant speed in response to an evoke sacrifice, allowing the evoked creature to enter the battlefield twice and stay there
- If you have two, you can drop something with the first one and use the second to champion it
- Fourth turn Nova Chaser + Fatal Frenzy (or Rush of Blood) beat in face.
- Fling the stoked creature, because why not?
- Nevermaker tends to make people angry.
- Surprise Sunflare Shamans late game can be incredibly devastating.

Living Hive, Liege of the Tangle, Dread, Vigor, Guile, Hostility, Purity, Barishi, Morselhoarder, Smokebraider, Hateflayer, Soul of the Harvest (if casting more duder guys), Ashling, the Extinguisher, Doomgape, Thorn Elemental, Tornado Elemental, Cloudthresher, Obsidian Fireheart, Spawnwrithe, Spitemare, Thundermare...etc.
Uncounterable is also considered valuable, like for Stigma Lasher or to bust out Skullbriar, the Walking Grave when they have an opening to get in unblocked and not Fog'd... (see all)

Liege of the Tangle
You hit them for 9 trample and get 3-4 9/9s to back you up. You can tutor either side of the combo with Flamekin Harbinger and you can hardcast Liege via Smokebraider by about T4-T6 depending on your other ramp. Makes for a nifty mix between an Aggro and a Combo deck.

His head is exploding with combo possibilities.
Here's one: Use Tidehollow Elemental to untap him and get two activations in your first main phase. For the first activation, put out a gigantic Elemental with a game changing ETB effect; for the second, put out a Nova Chaser, championing the first Elemental.
