This is actually a really good card if you can keep it from getting killed.

Insane, especially if you only run Black.

His only downside is that he can be killed by nearly every effect that can deal damage to a creature; easily countered by Whispersilk Cloak or anything that would prevent damage to him. Best thing I can think of would be Heart of Light; nothing can do damage to him, and all you have to do is pay {W} and a single life.

One of the few good imps. Not spectacular, but it's OK enough.

Pretty nice against decks that cast tons of spells.

Not bad. A very playable card just begging for a deck that could use it.

It's really, REALLY funny they heavily mentioned how Chimney-ish this is, but it has no relation to Chimp.

I have a slight suspicion that they were planning on reprinting Chimp with this art and then thought, "Maaaybe we shouldn't do that. With Bog Hoodlums just around the corner, I don't think that'd help Black limited in any way."

Oh sorry, I forgot the sarcastic praise. 'ahem'... "OMG IF WE REPRINTED CHIMNEY IMP, WE'D BREAK THE METAGAME! DON'T FORGET MIRRODIN!"

Good card. Shame it can teamkill really effectively in 2 headed giant...
