In Innistrad, beatdown mill is a legitimate strategy, between Undead Alchemist and his collection of beefy pals.

I love the art, the subtlety of the fog and her knife and cloak.
She's not that bad either, unlike M12 you can casually play mill with Innistrad and not have to worry about your stuff being useless.

It's not meant to kill people with milling. It is meant to give incremental gains in a skaab deck. Where plenty of creatures will be dieing. And its 2/3 body means it will be doing some attacking as well. In addition to all of that, it is a human so it can use all the neat equipment that get a bonus when a human uses it.
Go Go aggro blue.

This + 2 Heartless summon + Corpse Cur for infinite mill in standard.
Building a deck for fun around that combo.

Awesome flavor text, if nothing else.

Self mill for skaab or goyf based decks.
Armored Skaab performs almost the same role but is quite a bit better at it. Maybe she's a tad better in limited (and being a human might be relevent).

Great in a blue/black deck focusing on morbid. I use it with Reaper of the Abyss, Reassembling Skeleton and either Stitcher's Apprentice or Disciple of Griselbrand. If you throw in Falenkirth Noble, 3 mana kills your skeleton, gets you 2 life, pings your opponent for 1, kills a non-Demon creature, and gives you back your skeleton. It's like a super Doom Blade at that point.

I see this card as having a lot of potential. As mentioned in Skaab decks, she'll help you get cards into your graveyard, as well as providing you with a body to fuel your Skaabs. In mill decks, I see her as a defensive creature with decent power and toughness to prevent you from being hit by weenies. She also doubles as a chump blocker for any big hits coming your way, while still managing to mill your opponent as she goes. Maybe not the most cost-effective creature, but a lot of potential for decks that need a little splash of defense against hordes of rampaging creatures.
