It has its niche, and you have to admit that its ability can make walls worthless, which is always good.

Had to look at this and Goblin Roughrider (by the same artist) together to see if it was the same creature on each card. It's not.

this is pretty good when your opponent only has one guy out, but other than that it could be cheaper
