Eight mana? Even in casual, when will you ever be able to pull this off effectively? And why would you even want to?

Well a few reasons.
Blue doesn't pump as easily as other colours.
By the time you have 8 mana, your ability to deal 6 damage with a creature will probably be quite low, unless it has flying :)
And its a wizard (if youre that way inclined)
Not exactly good reasons, but still.

Blue got shafted this set. Which gets me wondering. Have red or black ever been weak colors?

Well... if you can get three or four Training grounds out... he'd be nothing short of amazing.

to the people who say this is bad, you never played draft with the invokers. they are good early and late game in limited.

He's not exactly aggressively costed to begin with, but decently well-costed for blue. His ability is steep, but there's way to get there, and it only requires one pip, to play or activate, so its easy to run in multicolor decks.

This card is pretty much exclusively for limited, in case you didn't know.

His art is cool. Too bad he'll never see play outside of draft.

At it's best as a finisher in a green/blue deck with a bit of ramp.
