Marcus Flint, in certain spots, can be a good card. But, he is usually not
worth it. There are cards like Inelligbulus and Charms Exam that are more
effective, and much cheaper. Flint requires two actions, unless, you
unwisely use him as a starter. He provides no lessons, and only a
Once-Per-Game ability. If your opponent has 7 cards in his hand, they have a
good choice of selection. If they have 3, well, you're lucky.
You could use Flint to stall your opponent from solving Privet for a few
more turns, or just stall him at the end of the game. But, I would advise
not using him at all.

This card has a nice ability! Let's say you just got out Fluffy and they had
two or three card in their hand, it would be great to use Flint's ability to
make them lose those without using an action. But he is definitely not a
starter and more than likely you'll have another card to do some protection.
So he is really not that good a character all around.

He's a Wizard so he "could" be your starter, but that should rarly ever happen.
(Like only if this guy was your only wizard/witch that you own.. in that case, trade
him off for a better starter.) His ability is to Confundus as Draco Malfoy's ability
is to Illegibus, except you can only use this guys ability once per game. If you play
a discard deck and you have extra room and one of these guys lying around, it might
not hurt to try him out. Otherwise, sell it to a collector and count your blessings.

Definitely a back up character, Marcus Flint is another fairly underused
card. The problem with him is timing. But if you could catch your opponent
when he or she only had 3 or 4 cards in hand, he could be brutal. The
problem of course being that he can only be used once. And for most decks,
he requires two actions. I'd rather see Gringott's Cart Ride, Confundus, or
Obliviate if you're going for the discarding cards effect. Might not be a
bad card in a heavy Ron/Leaky Cauldron Deck, but often there are better
options for back up characters.
