This two drop might be worth considering if you are looking for an aggressive early game beater in green. Semi-reliably bashing in as a 4/4 seems pretty good, but I'm guessing this will end up just being a poor impression of Tarmogoyf. If this was a red creature it'd be much better.
I saw this one, but don't think it quite gets there....but I got the last day surprise I like to get from the final set reveal. Phyrexia is coming to Ixalan! Hype train starting back up! Choo! Choo!
I love the art, and thought the same thing when looking through the final spoilers. That said, in my 720 list, it's going to be rough to find a cut that makes sense since most of my green 2s are much more important for different archetypes than a dumb beater (even if it is an elk!)
In an aggressive green deck (thinking GW here), you should have a creature entering most turns, so this will often be a 4/4 when it attacks. Not always, but often enough to be a better aggressor than a more midrange-centric card like Sylvan Advocate. I'm going to test this.

That's a pretty nuts card
