people do underestimate this dude. I played two when i played BUG control. i dont understand it when people say if he doesnt hit for a few turns then they kill him he does nothing. I have gotten multiple detention spheres, downfalls, supreme verdicts, and counterspells away from my opponents with this guy, and when you have all those cards exiled by him, they will NEVER get those cards again. NEVER. if you count the spells they cast, even getting one or two detention spheres off the top is useful information. all in all, he deprives them of their spells, which, in my opinion, is pretty good.
He's actually catching on... I'm not the only insane person running him in MBD anymore.
One of the individuals that top 4ed the MOC actually ran x4 ashiok and x4 notion thief in his 75 (as MBD).
Trust me, this card is very difficult to deal with in Block. If standard continues at the slow pace it is deriving towards, Ashiok will see more play. Most likely never going to be a staple, but it will be a role-player in the decks it can support.
