Often plays the roll of a *shrug* playable in cheaty decks and ensures I have critical density of high end targets.. Honestly I have been cubing with it for months, had it in multiple decks, but never seen it win the game. Almost always choose a different tinker/reanimate target over it if I had the option and the eldrazi/blightsteel are much more potent build arounds with sneak attack.
I like how versatile it is, seeing play in a lot of cheat decks, despite being not exciting in any of them. Think I've been facing some bad variance with it tho... so I'm still testing it... But I've been underwhelmed.
This card has been playing great here. It's basically the Eldrazi clock speed of a 2 turn kill but more easy to abuse and cheat into play. Leaving a 6/12 trampling token is a very good insurance policy but also pushes it to tier 1 sneak/robots territory. Probably my favorite Tinker target too, alongside SotSW depending on matchup.
