This card is amazing. For W/R/G you get a 3/3 creature for 1 mana. Even with W/G or G/R you get a 2/2 for 1 mana, with NO drawbacks. And, unlike Isamaru, Hound of Konda , you can play multiple at the same time. With fetch and dual lands, this is an automatic 2/2 when it hits the table. And it quickly becomes a 3/3 by turn 2 or 3.
This card should be rated higher, 4.75+. And, it is an inexpensive common card to top it off.
5/5 rating , easily.

Actually Guest513736147, if this is only a 1/1 on turn one, you're doin' it wrong. Most of the people that intend to put this in a deck to WIN will have this at 2/2 on turn one, and 3/3 on turn two. That's usually bigger than anything your opponent will have (unless playing mirror match) so they either chump it or lose 3 on turn two. Drop another one of these on turn 2, and that's 6 power at the opponent on turn 3. With the rest of the Naya gang, this card is a veritable powerhouse.
Personally, I love dropping Plateau(or shock land) + this turn 1, Savannah(or shock land) + Rancor turn 2. 5/3 Tramply to the face, yes please!

It is good to see simple cards at common, where they belong, even if they are powerful. If all the powerful cards were at rare, this game would be way more expensive to play. Save the rare slot for the complicated stuff.

They fight in the Forests but their power emerges from deep within magical Plateaus.

Turn 1: Stomping Ground, take 2, Wild Nacatl. (In some formats, Taiga works even better.)
Turn 2: Plains, Kird Ape and Loam Lion, swing for 3.
Turn 3: Start swinging for 7. Awww yeah.

A 3/3 for 1 mana. This shatters the curve in every way imaginable. Do not underestimate the power and speed of this card. This has been one of the best additions to Zoo decks ever. Absolutely insane one drop. Easily worth a 5/5 for being a staple in any RWG (Naya colored) deck.
