The art is just beautiful - one of my top 5 cards aesthetically. Plus he's cheap for a mythic - less than $4 for a playset means many people get to use him.

slips right into my paradox haze, followed footsteps, doubling season deck
this is my favorite mythic, and is almost unbeatable as long as you have a couple meddling mages banning maelstrom pulse and damnation (or its variants)
if you have haze out can the ones that came into play on the first upkeep attack. I was never sure about beginning of turn / upkeep rulings

@Tommy9898 Precursor Golem, Xenograft. There, I thinked. :P
Now, if you please, tell me why in the world I should not ADD Doubling Season to that list? :D
and BTW- 3 Xenos can turn this guy into a Rhino Soldier Golem Illusion Knight.
Hexproof-lord and Indestructible-lord JUST for the overkill lulz.

Not remotely deserving of mythic rare status. Mythic rares should be obscene in some way. The mechanic is a little neat, but I would feel unpleasant casting a 6 mana 4/4 with no immediate effect on the battlefield. Laying down a mythic rare should immediately bring a grin to your face--not three turns later on the condition that you managed to protect it and not lose.

This guy is awesome combined with something with devour
I got all the way up to 100 copies and used thorn thrash viashino (Devour 2)
he ended up with 200 +1/+1 counter's.
But then you have to watch out for cards that clear the board for example wrath of god.... So don't get ***y :D

Pulled this guy today.
Traded him for:
1 Scute Mob
1 Foil Timbermaw Larva
1 Wild Leotau
2 Constricting Tendrils
according to the accepted point system of my locals, this was worth it.
but what do you guys think?

Why does this card say that it is not playable in any formats? Is this a mistake in the database? Everywhere else I look, it says that this card is legal in the formats you would expect based on the set it's in.

@rinoh20 - I, personally, am getting tired of every ability finding its way in to white. In the recent sets, white has had access to counter spells (albeit not as strong as blue - it's there), tons of control (like Ethersworn Canonist, Silence etc,), the best removal that was available in standard (Oblivion Ring, Path to Exile, Journey to Nowhere) and this wouldn't be a problem if they weren't printed en masse. White doesn't deserve trample this easily. Bant Battlemage giving trample is fine because it requires a color that thematically has it. Conditional trample could even be acceptable. Why is it alright for white to get these off color pie abilities but people shit bricks when red gets back Lightning Bolt, or Blue gets a competent beater (Sphinx of Jwar Isle)? The only reason white hasn't been completely insan... (see all)
