I still can't believe this has not been banned. Rather than inventing a whole new format all they needed to do was ban one card. Alchemy just introduces more stupidly complicated and cheap feeling cards rather than just balancing standard.
When this card is chained with Galvanic Iteration players can win a game from having 1 health and defeat an opponent with full health without allowing opponent to untap. It's stupid. Playing against these decks almost feels like playing any other game and encountering a game breaking bug.
Taking extra turns is a broken mechanic to begin with, but allowing a 2 mana spell to duplicate it is some of the worst game design I have ever seen. The birds are just an extra slap in the face to any player who doesn't want to shell out wildcards to copy paste the championship decks.
