this is pretty risque and pushed. I don't know how well this will be.

But there is a total that says "target player skips his/her upkeep"

by Alex:

Hmm. Lifelink makes this really interesting. Turn 1 drop this, which is basically immune to any red or green removal and most black removal. Turn 2 pay down to 4 life, but then attack and go back up to 12. Same deal on turn 3. Turn 4 you attack for the win, but still down at 4 life.

I... think this is probably a bit too good. 8/8 is a bit too good at ending games too quickly. If this was 6/6 (and had you pay 6 life) I'd be somewhat happier, though I think I'd also recommend removing intimidate (which doesn't do much on a 3-colour card anyway).

Oddly, this card is probably best for a mono-blue deck. Since you could back this up with counterspells, starting the turn you cast it.
