I want to see a Shapeshifter of this variety with the ability: "Blue: Insert Name Here becomes a copy of target creature until end of turn except it still has its activated abilities."

It would probably have to cost a lot, though.

Tbh, of all the "Lings" out there, I like this one the best. Unlike Morphling, it survives Wraths and has better evasion. Yes, it costs 1 more mana, but it comes with extra P/T.

I ran this at prerelease. I was running a GreenWhite Selesnya deck, but I added blue specifically for this guy.
And let me tell you, he DESTROYED. Every time I got him out, the game was over within two turns. 8 damage every turn, and then there's the fact that you can flicker him after he deals damage to give him pseudo-vigilance. Absolutely nasty card.
Make sure you have the extra Blue for the flicker, though... That last round Grisly Spectacle hurt...

Up to 8 unblockable damage that can dodge all removal is pretty good, even if it does cost six mana. This is also LUDICROUS with Madcap Skills.

I pulled a foil one of these today in a Sealed tournament. It was a prime target for all those over-costed Cipher spells that are only playable in sealed/draft. I won the tournament, and I wouldn't have done nearly as well if I wouldn't have gotten him. He is an absolute house. Also a good finisher for any control deck (mine was esper).

Best answer right now seems to be Pithing Needle. This is still a damn good card though o.O
