He turns Scroll of Griselbrand on, so there's that.

All i see now is a Rakdos enabler, and i love it. it definitely shot up in usefulness IMO. You play this guy, if they dont auto-kill it, you get 3 damage almost no matter what if you swing with it. Will be seeing/using many a t4 rakdos with this guy

I wish this either did hose or was hoseable by Grafdigger's Cage. Would have been nice flavor :)

Nice in black aggro/suicide for AVR limited. Ramping Kruin Striker into this and bashing in for potentially 6+ turn 4 is nice enough in my books. Can bolt your opponent with Bone Splinters/Blood Connoisseur effects when the time is right. 3/5

Sylvok Lifestaff is an option.

There are so many ways in standard to counteract his drawback it's not even funny. While Exquisite Blood won't save you (ruling is that if you both take damage at the same time and your life is reduced to zero, you lose the game before Exquisite Blood kicks), Blood Artist will if I'm not mistaken (since you control both creatures, you choose the order in which the triggers hit the stack, correct??) as well as amplifying the damage.

Like GunG12aVe said he enables Rakdos, Lord of Riots pretty well (unless your opponent chumps or walls, which can be overcome with some type of sacrifice or removal).

He's a good deterrent from strong attackers as well, as he'll asplode all over your opponent.

It's not the most gamebreaking card ever, but it's great for what it does. 4/5.
