1/1 for 2 not flying
Deathtouch all day on other 1/1s

Two colors and the other ability you have to either be in sultai colors or generally aren't pulling off until turn 5

Which seems really lackluster

Sure late game it's a cute mana sink, but 5 mana... Nah if it were like 3 mana and had a bigger drawback it woulda been cute
I think

Deep Sea Scavenger
UB
Creature - Eldrazi Drone
Devoid

Deathtouch

Ingest (Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, that player exiles the top card of his or her library.)

3UB: Draw a card. Each opponent exiles the top card of their library.

I think I can see it work in a UB control shell.
Too bad {Jorubai Murk Lurker} rotates out though.
But with {sphynx's tutelage}, Jace, and all the other mill things, UB control mill could be a thing.

I don't think a control shell cares about a crappy creature that would be better spent on a card, a lot of the times the control deck doesn't even want cheap creatures because they don't want the opponent able to interact with their board generally.

And if it get through it gets one card per turn... Just. No.

Everytime I read it, I just think of how much better

Also a lot of good simic stuff, here's hoping to good b items or I might be going bant

DirtyMustachio

If there's maybe a way to use it in some blue black midrange mayyyybe I just don't see it

Why would you not just run a {hangarback}
In that spot in all situations

MuggyWuggy

For me as a bug player - I don't mind death touch raptors and eldrazi

Means I won't be attacked aggressively ;)

DirtyMustachio

It's not that I want it to be bad
And if you show me in organized play that it's good I'll revoke my statement

But God so many bad rares

Actually, with tutelage online you'll be looking at {3}{U}{B}: draw & mill 3+.
Seems an ok mana sink when looking at mill..

Ummm, did everyone miss the "enemy manlands" announcement? I'm like, pooping myself over here. Also, a 3{W}{W} destroy all non-land creatures and the other two planeswalkers. And now that esper gets basically all the mana, you can believe I will be using {Ojutai's Command} to rebuy Deep Sea Scavenger. That card is value-town, I pretty much love it.

Esper will love the death touch
