You know, my old comment, which I put up right after Thrun was spoiled, mentioned that when Mindbreak Trap rotated out, we were going to have some very sad blue or a lot more Wall of Frosts. And then they went and didn't reprint Wall of Frost and just made me look like a tool. :p

This is, in my opinion, everything a legendary Mythic should be. Combine a 4/4 body with 4 CM regenerate, and uncounterable, and you've got a solid, solid card. Slap on troll shroud and give him some awesome art and flavor and you've got yourself a mythic. At the same time, getting him doesn't mean you've won; it just means you've likely just secured a strong position, which makes him perfectly balanced. Easy 5/5 for power, style, and execution.

@Pendulous: He is the last troll on mirrodin. Trolls can't planeswalk. Yet.

I have to correct my earlier opinion. Thrun is very good. Just doesn't stand out from the line when compared to good creatures which other colors have gotten lately (multicolored excluded):

Snapcaster Mage
Delver of Secrets
Consecrated Sphinx
Griselbrand
Phyrexian Obliterator
Vexing Devil
Hellrider
Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite
Hero of Bladehold

Somehow I'm always expecting Green to get best creatures in every set, Green being the creature color etc... but that rarely happens.

Ah Thrun, the card that every color hates. Blue can't cancel it, bounce it, or control it, Red can't bolt it, at best it's a life engine for Black with lifelink cards, White can't arrest or tap them, and all Green can hope for is to trample over him or play the same card. Ironic that the color of the deck that plays him is the most common method to get around him. His only weakness is flying creatures, but Angelic Destiny solves that little problem.

He's not unkillable and vulnerable to several cards in other decks, but Thrun shrugs off most of the combat tricks of all decks. At a low cost. And can be buffed by you or allies. He's extra fun with lifelink. No green deck should be without it.

Edited as I forgot white.

Well, Autumn Willow, I really liked you as general in my EDH decks, but don't let the door hit you on the way out.
