play with the top card revealed mtg it's mono blue and it's exactly like that Goblin Charbelcher

Either way, spree gives this enough modality to warrant inclusion in decks across multiple formats

These decks have heavy investment

For Unsanctioned , we needed a legendary blue creature with a red activated ability, so I said, 'Let's make it a clamfolk, so give me the best clam name you can give me.' Chris Mooney, who was one of the finalists for The Great Designer Search, came up with Alexander Clamilton, and I thought that was amazing

Overall, while a seven drop can be a tall order in EDH, this Octopus gives enough oomph to more than justify his inclusion, which is why he's found in 46% of Doctor Doom decks logged online

For control and midrange decks (where I expect this card to be at its best), having one combat step where you remove one creature and eat another is plenty of value

This is probably the reason why so many boss fights in the MSQ lack positionals, or have any kind of mechanics that stop you from dealing damage
