What is the general consensus on this lovely lady? Seems pretty decent as an aggro deterrent early game.
The cons though are that it's a somewhat bad top deck late game, and that it could really piss people off and generate unnecessary hate. Also, the 1/1 body is kinda meh.
Tldr: Wrong format, gtfo. Or yeah, this could work?
No upkeep.
Isn't as vulnerable.
Allows your opponents to attack each other.
Doesn't stop people from attacking you, but if that's 2 or 4 less mana that they're putting into spells, that's probably just as well.

"[Screw] you and the green you ramped in on." - My EDH battle cry. If I had one. Which I don't.
Peacekeeper isn't worth it in most decks, but he's pretty good in stuff like Zedruu when you don't anticipate attacking a lot. He's pretty obnoxious with lightning greaves or swiftfoot boots. Expect a lot of from the table if you pull that off.

That girl is pretty ugly... but I think Greater Auramancy with all the other propaganda effects are much worse to deal with x_x

To the people that say that a card needs to be a higher rarity because of Limited... I hate you guys so much. I present to you with this.
Sorry, I should have put this into some kind of context. I play an combo saffi list, an while I do have some aggro, i'll mostly be dead jn the water against an early focus screw me over. The keeper can be titan'd and lark'd which is a +.

My Saffi deck is the same way. I like being able to say :grumpy:(no) to the aggro player. I'm sure in many instances constant mists is better, but I really like peace keeper in Saffi. In my deck I have a ton of recursion so I'm not worried about it dying. I just need it to last long enough to combo out.
I currently run Peacekeeper in my Hanna, Ship's Navigator build. Truthfully, I prefer cards in my U/W Hanna multi-player deck that imply "leave me alone but you can attack each other". For this reason I run Solitary Confinement and Propaganda effects as well. If Peacekeeper begins to draw hate towards Hanna's direction, then I will probably replace him/her with something else... (Him? Her? I always thought that was a guy but after reading the flavor text, maybe not?)

I've got her in my Rasputin deck and I love her. Hold off attacks until I hit a cruical mana/spell turn and don't pay her upkeep if I need the mana. Also just nice that you can let her die when you want to get the first attack in.
Cards that stop attacking, Peacekeeper, ensnaring bridge, ect... are in my opinion significantly better than cards that discourage attacking, Ghostly prison et al. Propaganda effects actually tend to encourage attacking from what I have seen where as effects that shut down combat leave any strategy that plans to win via combat, ei most of them, dead in the water. You play peacekeeper, they have an answer or they lose. The fact that she's easy to deal with does not change the fact that they have their answer right then and there or they have to sit around until they draw one.
I run her in Karador with Sun Titan and Saffi for the same reasons everyone else is describing. She draws hate, but then again its nice to have a counter-aggro lightning rod out for your opponents to focus on instead of your combo pieces. Just my opinion.

EDIT: D'aaaw, 'Nathed !
Very good way to abuse the Peacekeeper that I hadn't thought of.
Also, your avatar is mesmerizing.

Throw in Humility/Dovescape/Lightmine Field and you've got an honest lockdown.

Yeah, I got lost in that thing...sort of forgot where I was at or what I was supposed to do.
Seems like it might be worth running (as others have said).
elephant grass
magus of the moat/moat if you know their decks don't have fliers
but yeah, overall peacekeeper is a great card if you can either pay the cost or continuously recur her
