(As has been pointed out on all of the other cards' pages...)
This cycle (Charmed Griffin, Indentured Djinn, Enslaved Horror, Hired Giant, Hunted Wumpus) is much better in multiplayer, especially Emperor, and especially when your teammates have decks built to take advantage of the effect.

I could definitely see this being played in an emperor deck, your teammates get the benefit too so it just takes a little planning ahead. Luckily, white is the color that can efficiently answer multiple artifact/enchantment threats; so you just need a good answer (like return to dust/dust to dust) and you are set.

Bonus points if one of your teammates uses this to play an imperial mask.

Enchantment removal is not a problem if you know how to play white, but I admit that the mana cost is to high.

It seems that it must have been designed for multiplayer, as Phantom Monster clearly didn't need a drawback. Yet, this was Masques block, so one has to wonder if they just thought that a card of this power level in duels was appropriate...

I use it for multiplayer games.
Why you ask?
Why not?

I'm hearing a lot of people saying this card is terrible... but really ALL it takes is a hive-mind on field, a cackling counterpart, and having the field empty of anything except this creature and BAM insta-cheat in for your omniscience.

What's that? There are easier ways to cheat in enchantments you say? True... but how degraded do you think your opening will feel when they find out you used THIS card as the lynch pin in your strategy to defeat them. Sometimes it's not about winning... it's about something more.

Think about that.

Hmm . . may be useful in multiplayer . .
If your team mates run huge artifacts like Dark Steel Forge or Sundering Titan . .

The drawback is not as bad as that of Hunted Wumpus, since artifacts and enchantments are much less common than creatures, but yea, this shouldn't have a drawback at all. Even in the old days, when creatures were god-awful, we had Phantom Monster.

Umm, this is what a 3/3 flying would normally cost. The huge drawback makes no sense whatsoever.
