yes, this guy is the best pinger, but that's just because of his weird colors...no pun intended

So much love. Adds "Deal 2 damage to target creature or player" to all your counterspells and boosts all your burn by two. I'd run a dozen in blue/red if I could.

I could be wrong, but with 2 Gelectrode on the field, couldn't you infinite conspire?

Example: As Memory Sluice hits the table conspire states "As you cast this spell, you may tap two untapped creatures you control". You tap 2 gelectrode to copy the spell. After that, the original conspire card counts as being cast. When that happens, you untap the 2 gelectrode as the effect before retaping them as the copy is cast, thus generating the loop.
= insta-mill Memory Sluice
= insta-burn Burn Trail

"whenever you play an instant or sorcery spell, you may untap Gelectrode"
"Conspire (As you cast this spell, you may tap two untapped creatures you control that share a color with it. When you do, copy it and you may choose a new target for the copy.)"

could win the game turn 4.

+ Basilisk Collar (or anything that gives Deathtouch) = GG.

Personally I prefer Gorgon Flail to make him a teensy bit less flimsy.

I play four of these in a deck, as well as 4 kiln fiends, 4 chandras spitfires, and 4 Wee Dragonaughts. It averages a turn four win. The game usually looks something like this:
Turn 1- Island, pass
Turn 2- Mountain, play kiln fiend
Turn 3- Mountain, play Gelectrode
Turn 4- Mountain or Island, Tap Gelectrode for 1 (19), Play lightning bolt on them (16), untap/retap Gelectrode (15) Lava Dart on them (14), untap/retap Gelectrode, (13) Reuse Lava Dart by saccing a tapped mountain, (12), untap/retap gelectrode (11), Use Island to play a Distortion Strike on Kiln fiend. Untap/retap gelectrode. Now, you've cast a total of 4 spells (2 lava darts), so Kiln Fiend gets +12/+0, and an extra +1/+0 from Distortion, so swing for an unblockable 14. If they survive that, Distortion rebounds next turn. :) Best win ever.
5/5
