Spoiler season has me hooked on Cube list tweaking, so necro’ing a card I’ve been looking at.
As KMAYER noted, this creature ended up being more powerful and playable than anyone expected in other formats. I played multiple copies at a Standard Pro Tour, and see him all the time in Vintage, for example. I also see him in some of the popular lists on Cube Cobra. Have people here tried him? Curious what the Cube mana calculations look like for casting him consistently (how many Izzet duals and/or Izzet rocks).
Edit: btw the thread title is spelled wrong, so it was tough to find with the search function.
We tried him and thought he would be also a serviceable reanimation target. Reanimation decks do not bother with it, they want something with more survivability and/or immediate impact. This made the card too narrow for us, it frequently tabled and rarely saw play.
