Beautiful art, too costly but if it gets reanimated it pretty much means game over, unless they ass rape it with a force of will or similar

Love this guy. What. A. Bomb. I run him in my Animar EDH, and there's nothing like seeing the look on my opponents' faces when I flash this guy out (for {U}{U}, at that) at their end step just as they drew a bajillion cards. And because I'm running Animar, something like half my cards are creatures, so with Leyline of Anticipation I can just flash out all the cards I draw at the end step! There's no way I'd ever consider casting him for his full cost though, that's just ridiculous.

flash is quite useless for this card
IT COSTS 10
i made a mill deck
ive only been able to hard cast him once
and that was against a deck that stalls focuses on stalling games

C'mon DoragonShinzui, very few people are hardcasting this guy, they're reanimating him. And that means they can usually bring out a couple of more fatties with all of their card draw. Your opponent will be dead long before you mill yourself, or he'll find some way to miracle away Jin (perhaps a literal miracle?).

Aside from re-animator, I find him great in a RUG EDH deck. I have enough removal to take care of most "no maximum hand size cards", and 10 mana is easy. It's in EDH where the Flash shines. It's not uncommon for players to have a full hand of cards they have been working on for a combo, so flashing him in during their end step is priceless. Not to mention that draw 7 in a RUG EDH deck with legendary eldrazi's is also win.

Evil, evil, evil, evil, in commander. I have a mono blue deck that uses Kira as the general, and it does have one or two drawbacks in the deck, but I got this guy out one time, and it immediately made me the target. People playing politics to kill me/him because some didn't understand the power I had with them having to drop their hands every turn. In that same game another player played him....rough game.
He's pricey, so finding other ways to get him out are needed, but once he's out, opponents best get rid of him fast.

This thing is insane... the only drawback I can see is that you have around 10 turns before milling yourself to death, but that can not only be prevented, but also used as a victory condition. See Laboratory Maniac.
