In a good aggro deck, their life should never be more than yours unless you weren't going to win anyway.
3/5

For stompy, it's a must.
Your opponent's life should never be higher than yours when playing stompy.

Can't believe how low this is rated. Its drawback very rarely matters in the decks that want to run it.

Is a 2/2 for one mana not enough for you? Jeez. This has to be at least a 3.5, even if you don't like this style of card.

What happens if two other players, neither of which currently control this card, somehow are both at the highest life total?

EDIT: Very true, the card itself declares what happens; if the situation were to ever come up, that's how I'd solve it. I guess what I'm asking is, how does this work with the current Oracle wording?

@Tigt:
Read SilverSkyz comment.
To elaborate, control of the card doesn't change. Even if the player currently controlling the card has the least amount of life.

Seems a lot like an unglued ability...

Also, RDW can and will be ahead in the life race at all times against a stompy deck, if they're doing it right.

The big problem with this card is instant-speed red damage. If you play this on your first turn and the opponent responds by hitting you with a Lightning Bolt or Shock, you've just lost the game.

Better than Wild Dogs. If you're spending two mana (which is a lot in that deck) to do something other than improve your tempo, you're misplaying the deck. The Dog's cycling ability is useless, but the Ogre's extra toughness will sometimes come in handy (albeit seldomly).
