It has trample. Not too hard.
However the token is exiled at the end of combat. How do you propose to get around that without a {Sundial of the infinite} up and ready?

The token from mockery will go away. The token from {giant adephage's} ability will stay.

That was the point.
Thing is, you don't get combat damage in with the copy, it does not attack. In this case, if you end up connecting you'd get the token anyway, mockery or no. Even if you give it haste, it is not attacking and you already declared your attackers for the combat by the time you get the token.

Even the art implies it's sort of meant to go on an opponents creature. Or put it on your {crater hellion} or constant board wipes

Double-O-Scotch

Clearly pretty strong for any creature with an amazing ETB like {craterhoof behemoth} or {dragonlord Atarka}.

This is what I was getting at.
