4.5 for he's solid all over. I've had to deal with him more times than i can count (and i can count pretty high :P), and i know how annoying it can be to deal with..

Don't understand why this is rated so low, this is easily a 2-for-1, or at the very least gives twice as many things to proliferate off of after having been used as a chump blocker

This is a bit undervalued. It's cheap infect that can take out two creatures at once. This is a good early turn play, because it makes your opponent hesitate. Also, the only other infects under three mana are plague stinger and ichorclaw myr.

Nice ability for cheap creature with infect, comboes well with Throne of Geth but honestly If i wanted a 1/1 infect for 2 colorless I would run Ichorclaw Myr which is much better, while having a lower rarity

I have a question. When I sac necropede to throne of geth, do I put the counter from Necropede's death and then I proliferate or do I proliferate and then I put the counter?

Goes nicely with Diminish, or 2 x Diminish.

A fantastic sideboard card against boros or rdw. This little guy can take care of;steppe lynx, plated geopede, spikeshot elder and cunning sparkmage.

That nasty bug is autoinclude in any limited deck. Yes, there's risk (very-very low) of backfiring. But he's cheap infect/artifact/2for1 threat. Why is this rated below 4.5/5?

Yeah, infect is OP! I mean, look at all those top eights at oh wait a minute.
Ok, yeah, but still, all the top drafters were looking to force infect... oh, right, most top drafters would take infect only if they opened a crazy bomb first pack, and even then, only if there were giant obvious signals.
Kitchen tables! Unfair! Oh. Damn. Nevermind.
There is no format where infect strategies are in any way dominant. Or even top tier. Or even third tier. Outside of weird modern or legacy decks that win on turn two or three (assuming nut draws), infect is nearly unplayable. The cards just aren't good enough - they all amount to just beats, and dont have the kind of versatility that good magic cards have.
