Works in ninja decks because you can swing in your ninjas in the early turns, then toss him aside for something better later with the transmute (like a doom blade or a counterspell, just in case or something)

Perfect for a Ninja deck, but not for this Ninja deck, as the only thing worth transmuting it for is Baleful Strix. If the deck used Mana Leak instead of Cancel, and Doom Blade instead of Assassinate, it would be perfect.

@TurboBaby: Same converted mana cost. It could cost 1Green, it could cost BlackRed, anything with a total converted mana cost of 2. That said, Glimpse the Unthinkable is a solid choice.

Really would like some help on this please.

I am thinking about using this card to pull Mind Grind into my hand. However its mana cost is island Swamp and X. Can I still uses this to pull the card as X is something you pump up rather than a specific mana cost?

Hope that makes sense.

@ subatomica:
"202.3b When calculating the converted mana cost of an object with {X} in its mana cost, X is treated as 0 while the object is not on the stack, and X is treated as the number chosen for it while the object is on the stack."

So you can absolutely use it to pull Mind Grind.
