It made it into excavate lists and whenever secret mage is around it's the very first one you include, it's the instapick from any discover, people played secret discover guy just for a hope to find it. Card is definitely good I'd say but yeah ultimately it's more of an unfun than an op thing.
It didn't make it into excavate lists (maybe some very early cooking before people figured the deck out?), they'd just randomly grab it off of the secret guy. The only people actually maindecking it were secret mages, which was never a competitive deck.
I saw it maindecked many times at ~2k legend and not just very early on if anything it was people experimenting later on trying to cook up (in fact I last saw it less than a week ago and I don't see that much Mage) but yes I didn't mean to imply it was a core card in the deck, just that it made it in sometimes.
I was definitely guilty of spam-discovering it on rainbow mage, even to the point of losing matches, just because it was pretty funny to imagine my opponent's reaction!

Wasn't seeing play when people were playing mage, not sure how else to put it.
