I still run Larry Nevin's disk. It's always been ok but never super impressive. It has stuck about because we end up in multiplayer games fairly regularly and it's nice to have a colourless sweeper, especially one that can act as a rattle-snake or political tool.
It definitely sucks to see in it your opening hand against a hard agro decks as the fact it telegraphs itself a turn early means your opponent knows to hold something back till you pop it and not overextend so you lose the element of surprise a 5 mana sweeper would have in that situation.
Its definitely showing it's age so I wouldn't fault anyone for cutting it in favour of the 2cmc scalable options if their environment was high powered or agro is a big player.
