A solid, sturdy wall with a drawback that's not a drawback at all in the right deck.

Works well with Reality Acid, Ichor Wellspring... anything with good enters the battlefield or leaves the battlefield triggers. Also very efficient creature, specially for {U}.

Worst case scenario, you use this guy to bounce one of the lands you tapped to cast him. That might give you an extra mana if you missed your land drop, or it might put you back a land drop if you've already played your land for the turn.
Best case scenario, you use this guy to bounce your Aether Adept or even your Jace's Mindseeker for crazy value.
It's so easy to forget that this guy is a 1/5 for just two mana. Those kind of stats make an aggro deck cry, and even hold off midrange for a few turns.
Personally, I just love that there are still cards like this that encourage creative deckbuilding.
