Add Utopia Vow and watch him go. Excellent for disabling your opponents' Planeswalkers (or, if you get the opportunity, powering your own up!), though anything that needs tokens to function (Mycoloth, for example) is going to be an easy target. I <3 Leech Bonder!

EternalLurker: I'm not sure if moving a counter counts as puting it onto battlefield. I think it doesn't.

Huh. I wonder if "moving" a counter triggers Doubling Season's effect. I think it does. Of course, that doesn't make this quite as useful with Doubling Season as it'd otherwise seem, since you have to play DS after this, and that's irritating. (If you play it before, it just dies.)

This + Quicksilver Dagger = Decent combo
This + Viridian Longbow + Basilisk Collar = Awesomeness

Do I really have to be the one to say it?
Fine, slap a Paradise Mantle on Leech Bonder+Doubling Season.... And throw in Mikaeus, the Lunarch or Ajani Goldmane if you're going for a three color deck, or for a simpler dual color deck use Experiment Kraj? Lots of possibilities...

Theym and OmegaSeries, and anyone else thinking of using this with Doubling Season: Remember that if the Season is already out when you play Leech Bonder, it will come in with 4 -1/-1 counters and immediately die. So, you have to get your Bonder out before you drop the Doubling Season.

Not everyone here agrees with the versatility he really has. I mean common... just how much suffering does a simple back-water Merfolk have to go through to get some respect around here?! He's already got leeches the size of my Blue Heeler milking him dry for Mayael's sake!! ... Wait... this'll clinch it for sure:
Paradise Mantle - - ("Yeah? Shling us a new one Jimbo!"), -OK: Chronozoa - - ("Uh huh, heard that one from ma' sister last week."), -alrighty then: Cryptoplasm - - ("Well, now a buncha inbred Clones showin' up... what'dya know! Kinda like our family reunions.") - - You rdy there mister 'born on a bayou?: Illusionary Wall to Mana Chains - YES to a 1 cost BLUE kill-spell! NOW you can Gilder Bairn your own Loyalty, +1/+1, and the like in peace. Play around with Cumulative Upkeep... OLD mechanic, lots of potentia... (see all)
