What a genuinely, deeply odd card

They couldn't deside what anti-abuse clause to put on him so they went with all of them. Noncreature is kind of fun, One or more stops him from going real stupid with Cyclonic Rift, but once each turn and sorcery-limited? That's a lot of fix-it text.

At least the activated ability can be activated more than once a turn. That has some real power to it.

Had to read that part again before I realized how similar it was to Auriok Salvagers, and how that card already makes the Vintage/Legacy Bomberman strategy work with Black Lotus and Lion's Eye Diamond. And this also scales with the infinite mana that combo generates; Door to Nothingness was my first thought, but given how Pyrite Spellbomb already wins for you, Im guessing some protection effects would be used.

Kinda getting Underworld Breach vibes from this, but it is also extremely similar to a prexisting card that is used in a prexisting strategy that relies heavily on pre modern cards, so I feel like it will be fine.
