Tons of fun to play with, annoying as hell to play against when bounce is involved. Reusable sources like Waterfront Bouncer, Tradewind Rider work but I personally enjoy Aether Burst.

Bounce it,
Bolt it,
Path it,
The Drake is
Always worth it!

A two cost, mind control? Not fair! This card is... Broken.
It looks like it was made from an aggro standpoint, as must broken cards are...
Without combos it's already grand... With them...

Could I actually Flash this in at EOT and it's ability still trigger? (Without me paying the one blue?)

I do believe this hasn't been realized or mentioned but:
Barrin, Master Wizard and this guy make the perfect couple. Reusable destroy any creature, every turn for 3cmc. Beautiful!
Try it in a commander deck, gogogo.

Snap is my favourite pick for a simple, organic combo you can play separately as well. Play the drake, snap it, play it a second time. Double the effect for no mana cost. And of course if you don't like the opponent having a 3/3 flying, don't cast it a second time and use your mana for something else...

Pretty strange Oracle text... thanks for the explanation, ForestFire.
And as Laguz already mentioned,
this guy and Venser, the Sojourner are best buds-
the only better Venser target in that deck is Treachery
(why, untap five lands for free every round? sure!)
You can even choose to blink and sac the Drake once you've stolen everything,
so they get NOTHING!
That seems fair.
