Flicker Stonehorn Dignitary.
EVERY TURN.
Then just keep a few counter-spells like Cloudshift at the ready and they can't touch you. Then just wait until you get an end-game card.
Assuming they're not using decks like Burn or Mail, which then you can just sideboard in a Witchbane Orb.

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned any of the titans here, because, well, it makes sweet love to any of them.

There's a strong possibility this may wind up in a few of my EDH decks...so many utility creatures to use and abuse.

This has so much potential for wonderful shenanigans: There's all manner of decks that would appreciate it.
Might I suggest a Grand Architect deck? You could run Conjurer's Closet and your choice of Mirrorworks and/or Mimic Vat, and then abuse the EtB abilities of blokes like Solemn Simulacrum, Precursor Golem, Myr Battlesphere and Pierce Strider. Step out of standard and things get even juicier: Esper gives access to all sorts of wonderful toys, such as Sphinx Summoner, Filigree Angel, Faerie Mechanist, Baleful and Parasitic Strix, and, of course, Sharuum the Hegemon.
If you're a jerk, you can run a UB control deck with this, Ghostly Flicker, and the likes of auto... (see all)

I got 2 of these in my fatpack.
I was disappointed at first, but now I sure am glad I've pulled 2 of these!
I'm currently utilising it in a white/blue deck with ETB effects (Aether Adept, Precursor Golem, Geist-Honored Monk, Wing Splicer, Blade Splicer, etc.)
It's not competitive, but it's FUN to use (even my opponents are having fun because it's not a usual kind of deck to play with/against)
4/5

Play this with Lilliana's Shade...every end steep you gain a second swamp...awesome way to build up power, and thin your deck down, while gaining mana advantage, thus making your shade stronger.

Been using this with a Gravedigger and a Rune-Scarred Demon. Lets me hand-pick my hand and bring back anything that dies.

At risk of sounding stupid, could one use this in combination with something along the lines of Mimic Vat to make the token created thereby permanent?
