I'm using him as an EDH general at the moment, and it's probably my coolest deck. It's full of token generators (Dragon Fodder, Army of the Damned, Bloodline Keeper) and creatures who like to die (Solemn Simulacrum, Ryusei, the Falling Star, Noble Benefactor).
It also utilizes the Shadow Rift/Tainted Strike combo, which can also be used on Charmbreaker Devils. Bottom line, he's a fun general to build around. A bit of a challenge to mitigate the obvious drawback, but therein lies the fun.

So you have two creatures out, you play him, and in response they unsummon one.
We call that Fail. XD

Playing him on his own is not a bad idea at all, if your facing decks that cant deal with regeneration.
So decent sideboard card to this day.

I do sort of miss the day when huge creatures had huge drawbacks.

The EDH general of:
Red: Haste and Pandemonium
Blue: Unblockability and shroud
Black: Kill all that gets in the way.
If you cannot play this card FOR his "drawbacks" I think you are playing a different kind of URB.

I ran him in a Nekusar, the Mindrazer EDH, and in one game I had Nekussar, Grave Pact, and Underworld Dreams all out in play before dropping him. Suddenly his drawbacks had attached to them: "each opponent sacrifices two creatures and loses two life."
