But it is hard to consistently remove things from the top of your library with converted mana costs of two or less.

It only copies activated abilities.

I know, but it is in the activated ability now. Check the errata.

Phyrexian
Devourer's power is checked as its activated ability resolves.
Phyrexian Devourer's first ability also continually checks its power as
a state trigger.




10/1/2008

Once
a state trigger triggers, it won't trigger again as long as the ability
is on the stack. If the ability is countered and the trigger condition
is still true, it will immediately trigger again.

If
Phyrexian Devourer's first ability triggers, you'll have to sacrifice
it when it resolves even if its power has been reduced to 6 or less by
then.
