What happens if I play it with primordial hydra? Do I get two hydras or does the token insta-die due to being a 0/0?
Also, doubling season. 3X of a creature.
I played a game with this guy, ended up paying 15 mana for Riku (the 2nd time that game), Intet, an avatar of furyfor RR and Riku's ability netting me another avatar.

The first thing that struck me after playing with the Mirror Mastery deck was that it didn't have enough Islands. As both of Riku's abilities require blue mana, I clearly always needed at least one Island, but most of the time, I actually needed two (to copy a blue creature/spell), sometimes even three, and simply didn't have the blue. If anyone was to change the deck, this is the first change I'd make - add a couple Islands.

So... If I copied a spell with Epic, does that mean I get two instances of the spell each turn?

Here's how I want to break Riku Completely EDH legal, magical Christmas Land notwithstanding. Put down a Mirror Gallery. (I'm sure most of you already see where this is going.) Then play Riku. Then Clone him. Duplicate the Clone, and have the Clone token duplicate Riku.
Now, we're going to have to take a quick rules break. You can only activate Riku's ability once per valid spell you play. So Riku on his lonesome can't pay {U}{R}{U}{R}{U}{R} to Time Stretch for 6 turns. However, if there's more than one Riku on the table, each one will have his triggered ability activate; you can pay each one, and each will duplicate the card in question. We now return to our combo.
Now that we have a Riku, a Riku Clone, and a Riku Clone token, we bounce/flicker/kill and replay the original Riku. Double him twice with your Riku clones. Y... (see all)

Mmm, delicious removal bait. "Removing him? Alright, I cast Wild Ricochet and duplicate it."

"Whenever a non-token creature enters the battlefield". Who else thinks that makes him even better/worse for all the fancy new ways to pull that off in Avacyn Restored?
