Okay so basically I just wanted to see everybody's thoughts on this card, it's one of a kind and truly amazing, I love the way it runs in my standard deck, and I just want to know if anybody else is running it/ what your thoughts on it are.
Its just too slow honestly in a competitive enviornment. Every deck runs Smuggler's Copter and just kills you.

I run it in a Jeskai build and it works wonders! I absolutely love how it runs in the deck.

Hard to say if it will be competitive or not imo. The introduction of every new block always starts with Aggro everywhere and changes over time. It may not really take off until the next pack comes out. I would think it will have to be G/X to involve some mana dorks, and possibly the green gearhulk?

It's a fun build around. I know I'll be creating decks with it for its entire time in standard. And at four mana and not often affecting the board on T4, it's probably not what you'd call a competitive staple, which is great, because it means it will be affordable for deckbuilders to create cool things! As it's flavour text hints at...
It seems to perform two roles - as a one-of, it can act as a finisher late in the game when you have extra mana, pushing your deck over the top, or as an all-in build around, you largely sacrifice the turn you play it, but your deck can go off in spectacular ways the next turn!
Today I built a G/W energy deck which is crazy fun (eg. modules, servo generators and the likes of Multiform Wonder and Electrostatic Pummeler). But there's things to do in all colour combinations. Really happy they left it colourless and didn't force it into certain decks.
All that said, I wouldn't be surprised to see it turn up in some Bant or Eldrazi ramp type lists, it's a powerful card, if you can survive to untap with it!

Ideas running around in my head involve Cultivator of Blades, Angel of Invention, and Eldrazi Displacer...
