I prefer having the choice of what's in play rather than waiting for something useful to show up...

haha, now you have to use a removale on this 0/1 before you play your legend!

Apparently, Hanna and Mirri were able to defeat it by... both existing at the same time. As useless in the story as it is in a card.

This is standard in every blue EDH deck I have.

So, hum, does this mean "The next Legend you play dies."?

Also, if I read it correctly (since it does not copy any EtB effects), any 0/0 creature which comes into play with +1/+1 counters means this dies instantly, since it does not copy the counters...

Easily abusable with flicker effects.

This card was only useful to me when i would combo it with Pyhrexian Dreadnought. Besides that I never cared to find another use for it.

Funny wording on the printed card: "...permanently becomes a copy...". Yeah, permanently until the next creature is played :P

Should have cost 1Blue. Also, it should probably have ignored the legend rule; the interaction with that is a bit awkward.

Know that huge creature you're gonna play? Well, now you have two, at least until next turn. Except this one has haste. Renegade Doppelganger does this too, but doesn't last past one turn.

My friend played one of these and Cloned it twice. I wasn't sure what he was up to until he dropped a Biovisionary next turn.

... :( ...

Well, next game I got rid of these guys by playing a Batterskull.
