The flavor on this card really ticks off the Mirran in me. :p

Has anyone pointed out yet that this is a Pink Panther that's about to exit stage right?

I bet this was one of the cards that were meant to stop Jace. Well, I guess the Squadron Hawk has a different opinion...

The composition and color scheme of the art combines very well with the colored artifact frame.
Beautiful art, great flavor... If only it had first strike.

I think red needs more first-strike. It would make so much sense on this thing.

Great flavor text; they should give it first strike though; a metal cheetah thingy running fast? It'll probably crash into you before you can react to it.

@StephenF - "Just to verify, even if I use 2-life instead of the color-mana to cast this, it is a RED creature and a RED spell. Correct?"
Correct.
The cycle of so-called "monocolor hybrid" cards in Shadowmoor-- Spectral Procession, Advice from the Fae, Beseech the Queen, Flame Javelin, and Tower Above were somewhat similar to cards with Phyrexian mana, in that you could cast these supposedly-colored cards without spending any of the "right" color of mana. If you check the rulings on those cards, however, you'll see that regardless of what color mana was spent to cast them, their color did not change.
If you check out the New Phyrexia FAQ, you'll see an answer to this question in the section on Phyrexian mana:
"A card with Phyrexian mana symbols in its mana cost is each color that appears in that mana cost, regardless of how that cost may have been... (see all)

He kills Jace, the Mind Sculptor ergo he's Vintage Staple, and I'd argue Legacy Playable. He might not be strictly 'good' persay, but 'useable' is fair if you really want to decide that this is how you will spend Sideboard slots killing Jaces. (as opposed to Dreadbore). I also think there are few Standards that this creature would actually be bad in--
Simply note which Walkers are performing well.
In Scars Block, there was Elspeth 2, Koth, Venser, Karn, and Tezzeret.
The only Planeswalker it makes sense to use him against is Tezzeret, because the others either aren't threatening enough to demand such a single minded good-for-this-job-but-for-nothing-else answer, or they are Karn who is good against permanents.
Tezzeret wasn't the deck to beat- CawBlade was. If Jace, TMS had not gotten banned, you would have seen Slash Panther played everywhere Jace was, I think.
Slash Panther would be good in today's Standard. Sideboard, not main, but still good. Some Planes... (see all)
