Hive Mind?

I would like to see Hive Mind put to good use in a standard competitive deck. I want to be able to go to FNM at my local shop with a Hive Mind build and make people look at me and think "What is this kid doing?" If anyone could come up with a solid build post a link and help me out.

The only thing I could think off for Hive Mind is making people Polymorph a creature which is NEVER a good thing... Funny but not good...

Seriously though, the only thing that I could see it being useful for would be for playing blue/red eldrazzi token generating randomness...

As stupid as it sounds, if this enchantment goes down, god knows what way games will go, because everyone would then get copies of spells and could render counterspells useless.

Also, you would wanna concentrate on creatures and not use spells yourself, because the way stack rules will work.

If you cast a burn spell, then that goes onto the stack, Hive Mind triggers, and then resolves, then the opponents copied spell goes on the stack and thus will resolve first.

So work with blue/red creatures with built in abilities and see how it goes.

If you go the route of eldrazzi token generation... well, like I said... Red have some nice Sorceries, but once this goes into play, beware that the opponents will get to fire off the spell first. :)

hope this helps a little

Sounds like its more of a sideboard card where if your opponent plays a lot of counterspells or burn, you could play this and basically render their counterspells useless.

Would probably also be down to trade for regular foil nighthawks.
