Trepanation blade and this are a horribly good combo, as well as putting curiosity on it. the only this guy is dying is global effects or edicts, neither of which are exactly a dime a dozen. give him infect for a more protected blighted agent, or give him some equipment to have some fun with
A minor pet peeve i have with this card is that he can be invisible while carrying a giant flaming torch, pitchfork, or cobbled wings. If they were going for flavor they did very well, but should have gone a bit more in-depth by making visible when he is equipped. maybe make him lose the unblockability or something. it would probably ruin the intended function of the card (which is why they probably didn't do it) but being a flavor nut this just bugs me

Oooooh, I love this. Love that it's blue. Play this, drop a few swords, hold a few counters for non-targeted removal and win. Oh, and you might as well play angelic overseer while you're at it.

but yeah, not easy to deal with.
of course you could also remove whatever is making him awesome... swords, batterskull, curiosity, dark favor...

I drafted a wickedly fast U/W deck today that had my opponent on 1 life after 5 turns. It didn't matter though because he had one Invisible Stalker alone on the field with a couple equipment that killed me faster than my 5 dudes could kill him. So lame to play against in limited where your only option is to race him. Even if he was a -3/1, he would still be first-pickable in a draft. What were they thinking?

Invisible Stalker + Trepanation Blade + Undead Alchemist = an incredibly frustrating opponent. Throw in some Mindshriekers and Selhoff Occultists and it gets insane really fast.
Now, yes, equipment and auras can be removed, but the platform for those spells remains to be exploited again. Also, artifact and enchantment removal is rather limited in Innistrad ( Ancient Grudge, Naturalize, and Urgent Exorcism are your options, unless you really want to consider Bramblecrush or Paraselene. )
Really, this guy should have been Shroud, not Hexproof. Can anyone imagine what a Hexproof Blastoderm would have been like?

What's the point of being a flasher if no one can see your wang?
