Um, this seems to be a Windfall on legs. A cheaper, reuseable, instant-speed Windfall on legs.

Oh my.

ETA: I was referring to the ability, having not considered the casting cost. I'm ever so sorry. Obviously this card is unplayable now.

I included this guy in my Bolas EDH deck as a utility piece. He ended up saving my life. Here's how.

1. My brother's deck (DoranVoltron) drew a lot of great ramp early on, making his fast deck even faster. He got out Doran on turn 2 and had 5 lands by my third turn.
2. I play Jace's Archivist on my third turn. My brother swings with Doran.
4. I cast Blizzard Specter. My brother equips Darksteel Plate onto Doran and swings. It doesn't look good.
5. I swing with Blizzard Specter. My brother's only flyer, Birds of Paradise, is tapped. I bounce Doran. Then activate the Archivist.
My Brother: FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Me: *trollface*

The duel proceeds into an epic exchange of key pieces being played and removed, and ends with Nicol Bolas "becoming" a Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker and punishing my brother.

Jace's Archivist, you have been promoted.

With this guy in play, Unsummon is essentially "destroy target creature". You Unsummon an opponents creature, then activate the Archivist and it goes to the graveyard, which is exactly were it would have ended up if you'd of destroyed it.

You could likely play your deck out with this guy, Grand Architect, and Mirran Spy, in a deck of cheap artifacts.
