Just noticed there wasn't a thread for this. As far as pure non-modal 5-cmc creatures goes, this is probably one of the better generically good ones considering it does everything from its ability to remove pretty much anything / goes wide / evasion / good stats / etc.
The tokens essentially can't block, making them useless for defense, and if you kill WST before his effect resolves, you won't even get them.
Teferi, Hero of Dominaria and Fractured Identity set a clearer picture of what's needed from a blue 5 drop these days, and these don't even make the bar for many cubes.
I think this is a fantastic card - Comparable to Chaos Defiler. However, I'm starting to notice a pattern where a disproportionate number of the playable 3CMC+ creatures/ planes walkers are templates essentially as Flametongue Kavu

I don't think so, since they never technically leave the library, but I wanted to double-check.

StaffYes, because that puts cards from hand to library.
