All hail great lord Scornful Egotist? Seems pushed, especially as a colorless card, aside from the fact that it dies if you don't control another creature.

It's definitely a little on the pushed side, but in the end it's still a vanilla that requires you to play high cost creatures (even if it works just fine with a CMC3 or 4 creature on board). Since it's rare, I don't foresee it being too strong in limited. It may require getting bumped up to {3} if constructed testing with it goes poorly, but virtual vanillas that come down relatively late to make any impact at all (and get two-for-one'd early if your opponent has any removal) make me feel that the high upside to this card is negated by its high downside.

I can see some Delve builds with this in modern, but I don't see it breaking any other formats.
