The Spite can counter any noncreature, so it's a more expensive Negate, which we know how powerful it is at the kitchen table
I acknowledge that its frustrating to have an effect that opponents cannot interact with, but (much like Partner ) Im (mostly) fine with it
The plan is easy to follow: Gain life often, grow your board, and keep attacking
This is arguably the most significant strength of reconfigure as a mechanic
Additionally, this effect is highly situational, and not really worth using except in the situation where it allows you to win the game anyway, so I think we have to look at the Discover part almost as an alternate mode that you use when the creatures cant block part is irrelevant, which will be often It looks a lot like Goldvein Pick, a piece of equipment that really overperformed in Kaldheim
