Graven Dominator
Creature — Gargoyle
Flying
Haunt (When this card is put into a graveyard from play, remove it from the game haunting target creature.)
When Graven Dominator enters the battlefield or the creature it haunts is put into a graveyard, each other creature becomes 1/1 until end of turn.

This is a very cool list. Haunt is a weird mechanic. How about Night of Souls' Betrayal to wipe the whole board with Graven Dominator? With enough haunted creatures, this might even let multiple haunt triggers happen at once.

MaRo uses the phrase easy to grok often enough with regards to mechanics, and he usually means something like this mechanic makes sense. I dont think that its so much that Haunt is hard to understand, so much as it doesnt make sense for the flavour/mechanic mixture. Its unpopular because it doesnt intuitively feel like youre haunting anything when you do it, so you then have to explain exiling CARDNAME when dies to have it trigger again.
Maybe if the cards with Haunt were better it might be more memorable...Graven Dominator maybe, and Orzhov Pontiff has seen some play.
