I've always liked seeing what people have done before with Mistform Ultimus helmed decks. I however would never want to play mono-blue voltron. So what if we were all blessed with(dreams of a 5 color EDH pre-con one day):
Onmiform Ultimus (2/W)(2/U)(2/B)(2/R)(2/G)
Legendary Creature - Shapeshifter
0/0
Changeling (this card is all creature types at all times)
Flash
Omniform Ultimus's power and toughness are equal to the amount of mana paid to cast it.
At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice a permanent or Omniform Ultimus can't be the target of spells and abilities until your next upkeep.
X: Until end of turn, creatures you control have base power and toughness X/X and gain all creature types.
The higher p/t would be the reward for those not playing all 5 colors and spending more mana and thus giving them access to less anthems and effects. I think having a Mirror Entity in the command zone would be fun for people who want to go tribal and go wide instead of voltron.
Would love to sort out how to keep this balanced. instead of sac or shroud. maybe sac or devoid? Maybe sac a land or 2 for shroud. Just want a way to keep it from being too much of a game changer and have deck building be focused on not just good stuff pump + anthems + equipment. Its an omniform. It wants some weird synergistic swirl of effects to make it unstoppable.
He could even be a finisher for a 5c control build. Flash him in EOT once you have the board the way you like it. Throw some stuff on him and swing for the win. Similar to the way folks finish with Wydwen, the Biting Gale.

I'm here to tell you that all your set mechanics are bad

Good point. Also seems like I'm asking for too much from a card.
