Reef Worm
Okay, so this card isn't in Kaladesh, but this little sucker is one I passed on first time around.
Is this card any good in a practical sense?
I mean, it looks good, but when you consider that there are so many cards out there that nerf tokens, exile effects to deny triggers etc etc., is this card not as good as it promises to be? Or is it a great budget beater?
How have you played with this card?
Have you purposefully built around it, or just blindly chucked it in?
FWIW, I'm considering this in Red/Blue that routinely wipes the board with Disks & Red wipes
Cheers
It's pretty good.
Needs trample, evasion or Fling effects though.
And enough (free) sac-outlets to prevent exiling.
A deck based on come-into-play / death triggers / morbid helps.
Ashnod's Altar allows a large amount of mana once we land a Reef Worm or Mitotic Slime.
Another idea I've been thinking of is Cathar's Crusade with Ashnod's Altar. Slime might fit here too.
White has access to Hour of reckoning.
Hmm.... I think I like the black options better.
Being able to sac Wurm/SLime to Ashnod, then big mana into Army of the Damned / Esanguinate etc. is enticing.
I think one of the more interesting usages for it was when I looked for an EDH Marchesa, the Black Rose. She provides the recursion and gives your entire board resilience.

Hmmmm... Mitotic Slime anyone?
My meta: 3 or 4 player free for all, anything goes but boring games or broken decks cause a vote to end that game.
