I'm not worried about creating a Legacy archetype, because I think the format could handle it. From what I know, that's how Wizards sees things, too.
As for the second question, I have no answer. I thought it would affect all opponents with fewer creatures than you, but maybe it would just be one of your choice? No idea.
If you resolve Eureka or Hypergenesis to end up with a creature advantage, you can keep trying to drop this and automatically take all life away from the opponent, during resolution of the spell. The nice thing is that as a 2-drop, it gets in the way of the conventional Hypergenesis deck, but it might be the win condition of choice for a resurgence of Eureka decks in Legacy.
By the way, what's supposed to happen in multiplayer games? Say you drop this as your second creature, against 2, 1, and 0. Who's supposed to lose life, or might you perhaps even have the option of having it look only at player 2's board (using "a player" in the same sense that Fact or Fiction uses "an opponent") to actually let you keep it?
Even better with Mistfolk (remember that card?), Eight-and-a-Half-Tails, Declaration of Naught, Vexing Shusher (on color!), or Spellskite (not quite on color but close enough for most purposes).
Blind Seer is slightly worse as then you need a spell that costs 3, and he costs 4 himself, but go figure that this is the kind of card that starts to bring out Urza's true power.
Not bad with Vexing Shusher, either.
Hee. Okay versus counters, but really, really good with Izzet Guildmage / Nivix Guildmage :P
For reference, the cycle is Goldflower Road, Cloudform Boulevard, Miasmatic Approach, Bridge of Glory, and this.
