Another underplayed gem that gets a lot of use in my cube. Three bodies for three mana is a good rate, and everyone loves to be sacrificed. The enthusiast loves to be recurred, be it with graveyard shenanigans, or something more like Crystal Shard/ Soulherder. I've even chosen +1/+1 counters instead of servos once.
In my cube, this serves as the next step up from Lazotep Reaver, and both serve important functions as aristocrats and swarm cards.
It's important to put one servo on the left of him, and one on the right, one of the few positive things Hearthstone has taught me. He's a pretty good rate if all you want is bodies. The tokens being artifacts is a huge positive most of the time. Good in a birthing pod chain, costed perfectly for Sun Titan. Unimpressive creature types for tribal cubes, even though technically both of his types and Servos were supported in Kaladesh.
I have Hordeling Outburst in my cube primarily to support my polymorph package and I can say 3 bodies for 3 mana really isn't that great. It occasionally sees aristocrats play and only really shined with Jeskai Ascendancy.
