This card is great, just not crazy about the mana cost. he's great if you want to recycle your Terminates or Terrors which helps elminate speed bumps when hes attacking. Makes for a killer combo if you're playing him on the field at the same time as Magus of the Abyss and Sek'Kuar, Deathkeeper because you can build up an army of graveborn tokens and recycle your creature while eliminating your opponents defense.

I think this has some great synergy with all of those old school wurms that have madness, or sorceries that make wurm tokens.

To be fair, if you use it to return a lock out card it can end the game, on the flip side it's not so good if its just a reoccuring eternal witness that only works when it damages the enemy.
Use with torrent of souls for 8/6 haste trampler if it dies, and cycle between charnelhoard wurm and the sorcery to get a reoccuring 6/6 that has to be exiled.

@zevilmustache: You've clearly never been introduced to Fugitive Wizard.
Note that it says "deals damage". So, if you really want, you could put a Fire Whip or something on it.

@ScissorsLizard i was just about to say that, but with gray ogre or something
plus i think you are the only person to comment on the fact that i can give him a pinger and he goes to town on your graveyard.
also i find that he works pretty well in reanimator decks because he can get you back the 1-2 drop reanimation spell you just dropped.
picture this:
t1 : swamp, dark ritual, buirid alive (Charnelhoard Wurm, Reya Dawnbringer, and something else)
t2: swamp, exhume=Reya Dawnbringer, blah blah blah
anyways, you can just get back the buried alive for fuel for Reya, or if they blast her just get the exhume back and pop her back out(unless she was RFG'd of course)
and yes i know there are way better reanimator combos and targets, but reanimator is very boring to play.... no one wants to play you if ever game you are exhuming Iona on the first turn -.- so i try to have fun with new combos that no one really would think about
also i love that fact that you don't have to exile the card af... (see all)

I like this guy. But also: he turned out to be worse when I actually play him, than on paper. Like, that wurm has to connect several times to be really great. And if you manage to bash your opponent with a 6/6 creature several times, then you about won anyway. So, when I played this thing, it was most of the time just a "win more" card.
