Torpor Orb could see play in certain metas where creature abilities are prevalent, but its effectiveness may vary depending on the overall game plan of the deck.
Rules
06/01/11
Abilities that create replacement effects, such as a permanent entering the battlefield tapped or with counters on it, are unaffected.
06/01/11
Look at the permanent as it exists on the battlefield, taking into account continuous effects, to determine whether any triggered abilities will trigger. For example, if you control March of the Machines, which says, in part, “Each noncreature artifact is an artifact creature,” Torpor Orb will be a creature when it enters the battlefield and will not cause triggered abilities to trigger.
06/01/11
Torpor Orb stops a creature’s own enters-the-battlefield triggered abilities as well as other triggered abilities that would trigger when a creature enters the battlefield.
