It's a creature that's potentially very huge, but it's unreliable in not one way but two; the usual "dies to removal", but also a risk that it will come into play as a 3/3 or smaller. Which can happen often if your deck is slow and you have to cast it turn five or die. This is the explanation I can give as to why I always ended up running Bloodbraid Elves and Broodmate Dragon while this thing got cut. But then, these cards set a high bar, themselves being the best cards in the best deck of the time (Jund).

Step 1: Cast Buried Alive
Step 2: Send this, Skittles the Blight Dragon, and Brawn to the graveyard.
Step 3: Hello, this is my friend Mimeoplasm!

@BongRipper: Really? Splinterfright? How about Nemesis of Reason?
Anyway, attack Lord Of Extinction, then if he get's unblocked, pull off a Ghost Quarter + Archive Trap combo for a devastating blow
