Turn your Tidebinders, Cloudfins, and Judge's Familiars into Master of Waves. Even just an "extra" master on turn 5 would give you around 6-10 extra power to your tokens, which could easily be enough for a very unexpected alpha strike. Of course, in this situation Fated Infatuation would be just better, so I doubt it's going to do anything. But it would be fun to toy around with.
Ya, it can be quite the scary combat trick. It's a fun card, not terribly strong for Constructed, but the sort that will lead to amazing stories for casual players.
Oh you have a desecration demon on board? I think I will attack with my 1/1. No blocks you say? 6/6 just hit your face. Blocks you say? Tradzies. Sound good? Good.

Do a bunch of stuff with convoluted targeting and memory issues that makes everyone at the table say 'huh' and read this card five times.

This card straight up just says "Win the game" on it to me. Like I can just see so many blowouts happening with this thing. Swing with brimaz and all of his tokens, they block with blood baron, your 5 creatures are now blood baron. Good luck in the next round bro.

Fun for EDH & casual. Cards like this are perfectly fun additions that are dirt cheep. I see this at around $0.50 each. It's awesome when the EH deck doesn't break the bank.
Okay boys its time to kill someone in EDH. Alpha Team, you're all Utvara Hellkites. Bravo team, you're all Scourge of Valkases. Let the death by mathematical headaches begin!
Can someone explain how this card works? Say you don't cast anything for the "Strive." So that means it only copies one creature? Or is it a one-sided mirrorweave? Or do you have to spam the Strive cost accordingly to make a certain number of creatures copies? Cuz if it is like that... i think i rather cast Mirrorweave.

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.
You pick a target creature or creatures depending on what you strive for. Now you can pick any number of creatures you control to become copies of each target. Lets say you strived once to pick 2 target creatures to copy and you control 4 creatures. You can have 2 of them become a copy of your first target and the other two become a copy of the second target for example. Read the "Any number of target creatures you control" part carefully.

1. Mirrorweave targets what you're trying to copy, this targets the things becoming copies. So it can bypass hexproof/shrouded things.
2. You cast it for 2U to target 1 creature, to target 2 creatures you cast it for 2U and 1U so 3UU, and for 3 creatures it would be 4UUU, and so on.

So say my squad of 4 dudes (one of them being Grand Architect) the others being Flying Men. I have to pay 4UUU to turn them all into Architects?

Incorrect. You pick one creature to copy, and then have however many creatures become copies of that one, depending on how much Strive you paid. So if your opponent has two creatures, and you have four, you can pay up to 5UUUUU to target your four creatures, but you can only pick one of the two to have them become a copy of.

Ugh that is a crapload of mana. Screw that noise. Thank you and Rakath for making it clear.

Here a neat trick: you read the card and do what the card says in the order that you read them on the card. (Let's ignore the fact that for some corner cases, you need to do thing in the spell casting order.)
So:
1. You choose a creature.
2. Any number of target creatures become copy of that creature.
3. For one target, you pay the mana cost.
4. For each additional target, you pay 1U more.
(The tricky part, if you want to break down the casting, is that you choose the targets first and only upon resolution do you choose what they copy. Irrelevant except if you want to to weird things like target illusions and choose that same illusion as the source of the copy.)
