Yeah he is worse than archangel of Thune but he only cost 3 Mana and if the devotion isn't reached he is really hard to removed. He is at least a payoff for life gain cards. He isn't the greatest payoff but he is the safest. He can give the counter himself even if he isn't active.
If the combo with Walking Ballista winds up becoming banned, they will probably ban the artifact creature rather than new Heliod; there are too many ways to abuse the ballista.

It may be worse but it’s may easily be pioneer even modern playable
For one if you have a free sac outlet which are known to be in range for modern you can infinite with kitchen finks
For modern it’s grabable with collected company since it will see Heliod as a creature
For the argument of the combo with walking balista: for a turn 4 win you will need at least 3 cards to that, with just the 2 you can win by turn 6 (or 5) (being really opened to removal with WB). But the potential is there, lets hope white is as bad of a color to make this combo meh
Sidenote, but why do you sign off every post with your name? it's right there to the left of the post anyway
Because that's what I do. I'm glad it's making people notice though

So it's just to get noticed?
Dude, it's a schtick, some people have one, this doesn't need to be a thing like you're making it. At least Flamebuster's is iconic, unobtrusive, and not at all irritating.
I hope Heliod doesn’t die

Cards I still want to see created:
|| Olantin, Lost City || Pavios and Thanasis || Choryu ||
New Daxos does the same (and gives more devotion)
Linden makes you gain alot of life also.
Catchable with collected company
spike feeder infinite life
celestial force trigger every upkeep
Anything with presist and a free sac and soul warden esque cards infinite death and ETB triggers
But the my favorite everyone forgot about Kitchen Finks with any sac outlet
Such a "great" format ... not ...

The card is great overall, it's the Thassa of new Theros.
