This is one of those cards that looks merely decent at first, perhaps even overcosted. However, I found to my pleasant surprise that combining this with cards like Cloudshift makes it very good, since it removes a blocker and swings for at least 3 right away. An interesting combo if playing B/R is to use this and then Killing Wave for 0. You can pay 0 life for the con***s, but refuse to pay for whatever creature you stole.

And that's just with creatures.

Steal an Anthem effect. Check
Steal a Sword. Check.
Steal a Planeswalker. Check.

I'll admit, I didn't like this card when it was previewed, but I've changed my mind after playing with it.

It is my life's goal to play this turn 5, steal a tibalt that's about to ultimate, use his ultimate for myself, take all their creatures, and kill them with those.

Watch ~56:30 to see this in action
Granted Cho did have restoration angel to help, but this guy can really get sudden wins. Hayne had a strong board in addition to 3 untapped angels, but it didn't matter.

Is it me or is her hat identical to the Dark Ascension expansion symbol?

Secret fun:

Zealous, grab whatever creature you wish...

Cloudshift. Ta-Da! It's yours permanently!

With this you don't necessarily have to use bombs in your own deck, simply steal them from other people. That gives you more space for burn, which is what red does best.

I was low on life, my opponent had a Sorin Markov in play. As soon as it hit 8 loyalty, I dropped this, and stole his markov. He was at exactly 21 life, and had a Griselbrand in hand. I love this card, running 2 in my Boros Humans deck.

This, Restoration Angel and Thundermaw Hellkite are the reasons all planeswalkers are currently unplayable in standard.
