I find it amusing that people focus so much on it's 1 power without thinking about auras and equipments. It also enables some discard mechanics like hellbent and madness as well as flashback, as well as comes-into-play and leaves-play exploitation. Overall I'd still consider Invisible Stalker to be a better offense, but Escape Artist potentially has more tricks.

Escape Artist is a good card because you can enchant and equip him and make him more powerful and when something has the chance to destroy him, you can return him back into your hand.

@stinga: Apparently holding a fish is what all of the cool mages are doing in Odyssey. See Psionic Gift.
