Amazing in the right deck, which is easily a token deck. Easy to kill off your creatures and with extra tokens to toss around, you can easily activate this each turn. A Ghave, Guru of Spores EDH/Commander for example. An easy 5/5 each turn. So awesome.

Bus dude: 2 creatures and a well-timed removal spell on one of your opponent's creatures. Morbid triggers don't care who owns the deceased creature(s).
Potential 5/5 demon on turn 3 if you can generate the mana.

I would not play it in constructed, but in limited it can take control of the game, especially with vigilance creatures, and multiple Village Bell-Ringers.

Could use stitchers apprentice to sacrifice it's own token right after making it to activate morbid. Then the ability becomes pay two and tap get 5/5 demon.

He reminds me a bit of a black interpretation of Tradewind Rider.
Sure, having two further creatures available to tap in a turn a forth one died is a really tough requirement.
But man, this guy is a splashable 1/2 two-drop that can create flying 5/5s. That is pretty freaking awesome.
Just play him with the right cards.
There are many cards that can create you multiple tokens for little mana, especially in white:
Raise the Alarm, Spectral Procession, Timely Reinforcements, Master's Call, Midnight Haunting, or Waylay for example.
And getting the morbid trigger also isn't too hard with a sac outlet -
or any creature that can sac itself for something good.
Eldrazi spawns do a great job since they are tokens with an inherent saccing option for mana accel.
Emrakul's Hatcher, Dread Drone/auto... (see all)

Birthing Pod. This is such a good card against Birthing Pod. You have no fricking idea.
I drafted this guy alongside Stitcher's Apprentice and made a couple demons in a draft. I got 2nd place. The first place guy had 3 Mikaeus, the Lunarch.

I've been trying to put together a deck built around this guy using Black/Red. I can't believe no one has mentioned Kathari Bomber!!! It is almost as if the two were perfectly made for each other. I can't think of a card with better synergy: swing for 2 damage, sac kathari bomber, get two goblin tokens tap both and get a 5/5 flying Demon. The only thing I don't know is if morbid would still activate if Kathari Bomber was unearthed and sacrificed. I think I'll run 4 of this and 4 of Kathari Bomber and see what happens.

I dig this card!
Unfortunately, I'm having a tough time to fulfill the conditions.
I mean sacrificing a creature, check.
But to still have him + 2 other guys to use his ability is not easy for me to do.
Because with my play group the combat zone is...often utilized lol and so are spot removal cards.

Oh well, one day I'll make it work.

in the prerelease I managed to get 3 demons out with him...at the same time. and at the very least, he's a norwood ranger that draws removal.
