Buwha! That's an amusing way to get a game kickstarted. I feel it'll usually be too much; compare Chancellor of the Forge... rather than getting a free 1/1, you get potentially a Dragon or two more than your opponent, particularly if your deck is weighted towards the fatties.
Certainly, I aggressive-mulligan until I have this in hand...
what if it's only top 3 cards?
Yet another kinda fun card that's completely spoiled by Now I Know My ABC's and The Cheese Stands Alone. (Ok, seriously? The two most obvious cards to use to break this are 'un'?)
Ok, ok. Coalition Victory and Platinum Angel and friends. Sure; I'd mulligan down to my last card to drop "Win the game" into play. Ok, I'd lose most games where it didn't work, but still - they probably wasted a good half their deck on weenie crap; I go straight to the combo and the biggest creatures I have. If I can't win the game with my boardstate I'm stuffed; but so what?
And actually; you know what? It would be really fun to try. If it weren't for all those painful cards that just bypass the winning part and skip straight to the won. But fundamentally they, and lots of tother things, rely on mana costs to be kinda the whole "This is how a game progresses" - and bypassing that is incredibly dangerous.
