Does anyone use this guy to good effect?

 

I mean, I can see how you could combo him with effects like Northern Tracker or Lorien Guide to more selectively snipe locations but...a 0/1/1/3 for three resources

 

Am I missing something?

Nope.  He's pretty terrible and I don't see any reason to ever run him.

Obviously most decks won't want him, but any ally with an exhaust ability has combo potential.  I use him in a Grim Resolve combo deck as a way to destroy locations in the staging area (the deck doesn't have Spirit so can't use Northern Tracker).

That's a lot of resources for few effect. And you need progress on the active location to make it work, or do you add more cards to combo? Doesn't sound impressive
