Give it flash and laugh as you play it in response to their fatty :P
Or flash it out at the end of their turn and follow it up with a fatty of your own ;)

I bet you could work something cool out with this and deep sea kraken another suspended fatty. Toss in a timebug, play this, remove the final time counter, and wabam. Monkeys.

does this work with creatures like Ivy elemental, or does the CMC stay 1?

Question - Do you still get the apes if the Cage has left play by the time its triggered ability resolves?
Just wondering because the sacrificing isn't a cost, and there's no "if you do" involved...

Combat trick? According to the text, you're forced to sacrifice it the next time a creature comes into play. You don't have a choice. What if someone plays a 1-drop 1/1 creature? You just paid 5 mana for a 2/2 creature!
You want to play a creature to use this? You'll have to use a bunch of mana to summon your own creature right after you play this, and honestly here, if you had 11 mana to spend on a Darksteel Colossus and 5 more to spend on this beforehand, you should already have won the game.
At best, it prevents your opponent from summoning something big for a little while, 'til you're forced to use this with your own creature, or you're forced to use it with one of his weenies. This card stinks.

Greater Gargadon jumped into mind.
Other than above, I don't see how this could get around problem of the opponent playing a 1/1.

Cheat Emrakul, the Aeons Torn in while this is in play.
Sure, no extra turn, but who cares?
You have 15 2/2 creatures that are APES!!!

A) Insert this into a green deck with mana ramp
B) Drop the cage
C) Cast a fatty. (Note 5 drop falls right before titan range)
Not hard folks, not hard.

This does NOT combo with token decks.
