Strategies
With
Aside from its terrible name, Fun-Dead Raiser is a decent card in Trickster and certain non-Trickster control decks. Card advantage will always be very powerful, as having more cards then your opponent gives you more longevity and more options to deal with their plays. 3 brains is a lot for a card that gives no immediate advantage, though.
Having this in your hand makes it safer to pass brains to Tricks; for example, you can pass 3 brains and then choose to use either Rocket Science or Fun-Dead Raiser depending on what the Plants played. It's also great at both searching for and reducing the cost of Trickster, making it especially good alongside it. However, it is too passive to fit outside of control and certain faster Trickster decks, but these are typically the best decks on most Brainy heroes, so you'll probably end up using at least a couple (unless you're Huge-Gigantacus). For other decks that make use of draw power, such as aggro, pure OTK Valkyrie, Stompadon, etc., Regifting Zombie is typically used instead since it comes with a usable body.
Against
Obviously, you can delay this with Forget-Me-Nuts, prevent this with Brainana, and punish this with Sportacus and Black-Eyed Pea, but a) you aren't using Brainana to block Fun-Dead Raiser and b) the actual best way to punish Fun-Dead Raiser is to play threatening Plants; since it spends a lot of Brains for no immediate advantage, trying to get as much advantage as immediately as possible will force them to either play something else or immediately be on the back foot.
