Not bad, I guess. We'll probably have to wait until Innistrad before finding out how useful his mill will be in Standard.
I pulled one of these in a prize pack at the prerelease and traded for a playset of Splinter Twin. I guess I might end up eating my words here, but, I don't think I'll miss him.

You do realize that there are 4 blue plainswalkers right?

@cardsz500: angelheartvial means that there have been that many planeswalkers represented in cards. (Black: Liliana, Sorin; Green: Garruk, Nissa; White: Ajani, Elspeth, Gideon)
But he/she forgot about Tezzeret.

I could see using him out of a mill deck just for the drawing, repeatable draw is repeatable draw and its always useful to have an alt win. Plus people tend to overreact when they see a planeswalker and its a nice distracting from your face.

Glimpse the Unthinkable. On a stick. For a 0 cost (well, on a planeswaler, but I digress.)
I approve.

His two abilities would force people to mill, seco ability is far too good consider milling ten cards means you get to see what the deck is really composed off, an you get free-win ifyou mill your opponent 5 times if they don't recycle their graveyard.
It's reasonable they made the CMC on 5.

I'm wondering how often you'll be targeting yourself with the -0 ability.. That's an instant threshold, and a very easy way of playing with your graveyard. Should be a fun card to play with.

This with Psychosis Crawler you get a 20/20 creature at least AND you deal 20 dmg to them, if they didnt life gain that is win right there

Ugh.
2 days ago, at a draft, I first-pick him. I come in 4th, for a 'rare draft' in which all rares and mythics are pooled and I get a 4th Bloodlord of Vaasgoth.
Yesterday, at a sealed, with NO rare draft, my friend pulls one. I come in 4th out of about 30 people. He comes in 23rd. AND I GET ALL BIRDS Of PARADISE IN MY PRIZE PACKS!
Rant over. This is the best 'walker in limited, okay in constructed.
