Looks good on paper but I haven't seen anyone play him. He attacks everyone including friendlies. I've seen some friendly game may hips people are experimenting w him as solo deck or with only one other companion.

Him alone
Him with Creators (Creators will only take 25 dmg when his ability strikes)
&
Him with dodge units. (Dual Dagger and Kitty)
Him alone CAN work, and I have smashed some 100 Gold matches against some good decks. Pro Mode... against a ready opponent it is impossible so far. Here's what Ive been using:
Overlord, Summer Time, Ice Trap, Goddess' Favor,Shadow Assault, Archangel's Courage
The first card that I think is a must use with all these decks is Goddess' Favor. This will hopefully save him from a killing blow and bring him back to about 50% HP. Primed for his ability to go off. I put this together with Shadow Assault for the damage increase. 2,000+ dmg to most cards. Archangel's Courage for the armor boost so he doesnt get melted too quickly and the Damage boost. Ice Trap for obvious reasons. I have done pretty well with this combo.
I have yet to test it with Dodge cards. The Dodge ability so hopefully they dont get hit by his ability. The drawback I see is that Dual Daggers would be a solid choice, but they will use up the Shadow Assault. So maybe scratch that card. I will try it with Kitties and see how that goes. The upside to dodge cards is that they will all, at least at the start of the fight, have lower HP so cards that attack the weakest unit will go for them. I feel a heal of some sort is still a must.
That's all I got for now. This guy may have potential but so far it seems a bit gimmicky.
Seems you have started to discover the ways how to use it. Good news is, the card's ability will be improved further in next version.
You should announce this Admin. And possibly some other big changes.

You mean me?
I've gotten from 4.5k - 8k dp this season with him though.
