Also, there are lots of X spells that create creatures at instant speed, like Call the Coppercoats, Decree of Justice, White Sun's Zenith, so you could set up an easy win in EDH by casting a big spell, attacking the next turn, and untapping to win
Its important to have two lands in play before you go off
You could easily find yourself in a matchup where its actually good, have it in your opener (and its not a great topdeck), draw three or four extra cards over the course of the game, and eventually lose to The Scarab God
I wonder if this will pave the way for UB sets with even greater dissonance in the future
Its a great blink target, and later in the game, you can transform it into Kefka, Ruler of Ruin, a strong flier that can draw you so many cards just by attacking and dealing damage
