Really, really like this creature. I want to live the Braids + Rankle Dream!
Gotta cut something though and wondering how sacred is Skinrender at 4CMC when Nekrataal and Chupacabra are already there (cube list in sig for reference)?
I've recently removed the green aggro package from my 465 unpowered because no one was playing it, unfortunately. However, I'm stuck with Tattermunge Maniac, essentially now a red 1-drop taking a Gruul slot, for which I have no interesting of fun replacement.
Does anyone have suggestions to replace it? I was considering Cindervines or Rhythm of the Wild from RNA but neither strikes me as particularly exciting.

I would simply like to second what bmholle said: I also play a tweaked version of your cube, which my playgroup highly appreciates, and your input to the community is outstanding. Thanks for the dedication =)
I took this occasion to also cut down my cube. However I kept it at 450 since we sometimes get a 9-10th drafter. Looking forward to future updates!
My comment was a joke based on the rest of the thread, as indicated by the smiley. I know full well lark is a buildaround. Sorry about this confusion...
This seems like a pretty solid card to me. Yes it creates 2 tokens for the opponent, but on hit you get a Lotus vale, which can be used the same turn since it won't be tapped. Cast and equip costs seem reasonable too. Stick this on a flyer, shadow, etc. and profit.
I'm also considering swapping in the Lancers, probably for Baneslayer. I think it's a more interesting card - good tutoring stapled to a decent body sounds like a win.
It does seem interesting and fun, but power-level wise I don't know since you will need 3 turns to flip it. The ramping (Treasure tokens + land) is nice though, basically providing a Black Lotus + land when it flips, although a bit late in the game (T4-5).
The only invocation I run is Hazoret and only because it reads "Hazoret the Pervert". Otherwise I hate the look of this masterpiece series.
The inventions though, that's another story =)
I agree - this seems like a nice fit in control-ish shells. It's a great creature for attrition games. It has to be dealt with ASAP, ideally by exiling it, or it will take over the game.
Considering replacing Dragonlord Silumgar with it - it makes for more interesting decisions IMHO.

Will Kenrith, Treasure Cruise or Time Spiral?
Feel free to look at my 450 list if you want to suggest other cuts (in sig)!
Thanks!

So... Reveillark is out?
More seriously, what are you looking at as a cut?

Worth testing for sure.
