In what universe? If you build a deck like that, and ever draw that hand, I will personally come to wherever you live, perform complicated acts of awestruck *********, then disembowel myself to escape the world that allowed something like to to occur and validate you.
Media is not making me steal. But in a way is like the story of the very hot girl with the short skirt teasing the old sick guy with a history of rape.
A nice Multiplayer card (What? Ferret gets a Multiplayer card?), it feeds off of cards that are undercosted. Did someone say Phyrexian Dreadnought? And remember kids, it's when it comes into play. Go blink decks!
Here we go...the DEFINITION of "Limited Bomb" and "Constructed Jank" all rolled into one.
Seriously...in Limited..this guy is quite literally a house (or village..in this case...sorry, sorry...)...big drop...followed by little drops...followed by something to give him trample...lol. In Constructed? A 6/6 for 7?! Oy...
i'd rather eat a bowl of dog dookie then play with this card even in a casual fun deck. these will be vigorously torn in half by me every time i open them in a booster pack.
I don't like this card, it is a limited bomb, but it will be the only use will see from this, unless a casual Jhonny make a very strange combo deck with this guy, gargadon and the fling giant.
Yawn... Yes it's flavorful, but not very interesting.
It is gross that power creep reveals just how freaking pushed this is (see Trained Orgg and the red fat creature(s) from Ravnica), though it most likely wont see play (without trample) unless it is paired with Brion, Flinger...?
I am very happy to see that Paolo Parente got to do work for this set (hopefully he did a lot more - this is great work as usual), but he teamed up??? With Brian Snoddy? eww
While netdecking and testing VileHorror i thought about Biorhythm. Sure its really expensive, off-color and crappy but still you're always the one with creatures while playing VH. That made me think.

He could be a nightmare played alongside Nova Hunter.. even if the Hunter bites it, he's still a 16/16. Plus, with Loxodon Warhammer in 10th - 19/16 trample. Not too shabby.

No trample? He's certainly a limited bomb, but i am waiting for more constructed bombs. This definatly reminds me of onslaught block. Ancient Ooze anyone? I miss ravnica block already :-(
he's a bomb in limited he ends the game if you drop two creatures...
Truly good for limited only
Otherwise he'll eat Terrors all day long, and he doesn't even trample as mentioned. I'm getting the impression that Brion besides, Giants may not be cutting it...which kinda sucks.

You're not your deck.
You're not how much mana you have in your pool.
You're not your half-naked, animè girl card sleeves.
You're not your DCI rating.
You're not your freaking ‘Coldsnap Prerelease’ t-shirt.
You are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the Multiverse.

Celebrating 3 years of open-minded acceptance, indispensable help, great advice, and incalculably-creative deck-design... Thanks for all the magic!
In other news, maybe someone will make this usable with Gruul Warplow? Nahh, prolly not.

Obviously I would like to draw conclusions that giants are huge....-_-;
Currently there is a rumor at * http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/showpost.php?p=2229239&postcount=66 * that there is a giant that makes your giants cheaper. But that doesn't mean much if people don't like giants to start with.

And there's the flipside.
Timmy, please enjoy this card. It was designed just for you.
Sadly, I don't think anyone but Timmy will be able to use it.
