Aura Gnarlid + Mammoth Umbra = 6/6 vigilance, unblockable by most creatures, has to be killed twice. The only way to make it better at that point is to give it a Hyena Umbra or a Snake Umbra, and then it's nigh unstoppable

So scary. So, so scary to be staring down the barrel of an 18/18, quadruple totem-armored, three drop...until you Unsummon

But seriously, this guy rocks, especially that people in our play group don't play a whole lotta bounce (but they do play a Whole Lotta Love)

5/5

Just plain nasty. Seriously. Way scarier than any Eldrazi.

I LOVE this guy. I know it wasn't the optimum setup, but on turn 4, I had Him + Boar Umbra + Angelic Destiny + Lifelink. So on turn 4 I had a flying lifelink first strike totem armor basically unblockable 12/12 that can attack that turn. Problem Baneslayer?

Would this card be destroyed if you put a Dead Weight on it?
Would it get +1/+1 before Dead Weight left the stack?

I've been getting great results running this guy in a deck which uses auras as mana acceleration, such as Wild Growth (I simply can't find Utopia Sprawl) and Overgrowth. More than once this has been a turn 2 4/4, without any auras enchanting him.
He isn't my favourite target for creature auras, since hexproof creatures are better than him in that aspect, but he runs well alongside them, but I don't mind playing something I wouldn't mind seeing on the graveyard on him (such as Dragon Fangs or Rancor.

The aura thing is mostly a small boost, its true power is in the first ability. Green has a lot of ways to pump him up, from Blanchwood Armor to Alpha Status (which incidentally give him an additional +1/+1 each), and then few things short of an Eldrazi can stand against him.
