Excellent way to start off a curve. Great new human 1-drop. Looks like he's right out of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

Dark Favor is a perfect follow up to this guy.
Now I'm going to see if I can build a standard suicide black deck.

Excellent target for a turn 2 ordeal

If I use a raise dead on this card would that trigger the heroic effect from the graveyard?

I feel like this card would be awesome in a Golgari deck. Using Lotleth Troll to discard and Varolz, the Scar-Striped for scavenge, this can be another Slitherhead

@bleedinggreen923: Hopeful Eidiolon + Ethereal Armor x2 = 7 first strike lifelink T2 swing.
Though now that I think of it, using a Godless Shrine to get this out T1 then dropping those same 2 Ethereal Armors on this T2 results in your opponent losing 8 life on t2 (2 from the hero's triggers, and 6 from the now 6/5 Hero that's getting 2 +2/+2 boosts).
Pretty sure there's something big in a turn 1 green dude followed by a turn 2 multiple Burning Tree Emissaries followed by Aspect of Hydra. 2 lands, (Experiment One or Dryad Militant), 3 BTEs, Aspect of Hydra, and a Titan's Strength = 12 swing t2.
I think there's bigger though. 2 shocks to supply red+blue+white mana, T1 Blistercoil Weird, T2 Hidden Strings x3 and Boros Charm = attacking with 5/5 double strike that becomes 8/8 at second strike and gives you plenty of instant speed mana to play with between strikes with card #8 (Explosive Impact?)
Yep. Those 8 cards = 5+9+5 = 19 damage. Things were so much easier when Fling was in st... (see all)

This guy smells like EDH shenanigans to me. Get a nice cheap Buyback card that can target creatures (like Imps' Taunt), a big old pile of mana, then go nuts. It hits everyone at the table, which is kinda sick in multiplayer.
I mean, sure, you could just Exsanguinate, but where's the fun in that?

Turn 1: swamp, this guy.
Turn 2: plains, ethereal armor & deviant glee you gain 2 they lose 2. Swing for 6. Puts pressure on fast. Throw in some orzhov charms and some gods willing or the like and you got a resilient lil beater that can cause much frustration and possibly some bad plays on the opponents part because they will be focusing on the lil one drop in their face and not the larger threats standing behind the lines in wait of the opportune moment to strike.
