This card is crap design. I don't care if it is used or not, it is crap design. It is obviously aimed at competitive play, but it's not even strong enough for that. Now it's just another rare that a poor kid will get in his booster pack only to be disappointed (most kids are timmies).

He may have missed the delver boat, but he can certianly still nom his fair share of Geist of Saint Traft. Also, in modern, the Delver party never stops!

Just like Frenzied Tilling and Gruul War chant this card looks almost identical to Tower Defense despite being from different artists.

Wizards: Agent Superbear, we are being overrun by Delver of Secrets. We need your help now!
One year later...
Agent Superbear: HEY GUYZ! I'm sorry, I just got your call. What did I miss?

Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE complained about powercreep on this guy, but magiccards.info says he's going at 38 cents right now.
So there's that.

I am totally a green mage at heart, but I agree that this should cost 
at the very least. I really don't want to complain about powercreep but I am not a fan of the fact that rares (or worse, mythic rares) can cost the exact same amount as a common and have the power-level be soooooo skewed towards the rare. Sure, give rares and mythics a bit of a boost, but it shouldn't make equivalent-costed commons look like total sh*t when placed alongside - this card does that. And it's the type of thing that makes me angry at Wizards of the Coast when I see it. Because a deck stuffed with all rares is a pay-to-win scenario that makes the game not much fun for those of us who don't want to hand our wallets over to Hasbro.

I could be annoyed that it's absurdly better than a bear, but it's not as though strictly better than a bear is new. I could be annoyed that it doesn't cost GG like I assumed such stats would.
But no. I'm actually most annoyed that it isn't a spider. For I anxiously await the day when spider tribal becomes a thing.

@ The_Trendkill
So, you're saying that people thought this would be better than Dark Confidant? The brokenness that is dredge? I'd even say the Guildmage cycle would have outclassed this in Dissension, as they do more than sit there being a reach bear if your opponent isn't playing blue. Which guess what? They weren't. Decks to beat were Boros and Zoo or BW aggro variants.
