I love this guy, and hate playing against him. Bad trade or discard a card and take two. FFFUUUUUU-
This entire cycle is sooo good.

This little bugger got me to third place in a draft last friday. Granted, there were only six people, but he was the number one killer

It's a lot more appealing than using a non-goblin such as Cabal Slaver.

A non-flying Scepter and a nonblack Zombie that's far more playable than the Null i remember? Interesting! :D
This might be a very nice choice besides Crypt Champion for a BR Zombie deck.

I smell a Quest for the Nihil Stone combo in limited.

I'm wondering when R/B became the new discard colors. Between this, blightning, sanity gnawers and thought hemorrhage Red is very quickly encroaching into what was for a long time Blue's territory. Sure, you still get cards like brainbite but I really miss the beautiful synergy between bounce and discard that exists in blue and black.
I guess we'll be seeing fewer cards like recoil, blizzard specter, and river's grasp as red steps into the discard spotlight.

A non-flying specter; very interesting.
The one-toughness kind of sucks, but was probably necessary to make them fair in limited.

@Dgregory; If you look back, Red has always been into hand disruption. Wheel of fortune, winds of change, etc. A multiplayer deck with Red/black/blue based on things like Megrim and Windfall and Underworld Dreams wouldn't be the same without red.

Meh, in my meta, it's better to just play Ravenous rats. He usually only gets me one card anyways before my opponent plays a 1/1 chump blocker. Sometimes he doesn't even get me that, so ravenous rats is a much safer bet... pluh

Specter ability for 2 mana... and a swamp? sure. Err... needs to attack and not getting blocked... and a swamp?.
You know, there's a reason why most specters fly. Try considering Specter's Shroud instead of this thing unless you're playing limited. True, Mirrodin's block cycles next season... oh well.
