A defining fatty in my green deck. Not only does he come out quickly and wreck the house, but blue can't do a whole lot about it. And the art might distract people from making key strategic decisions.

Noo! They finally did it. They made a creature with Force of Nature's exact CMC and body with no drawback. The opposite, in fact. Green's hate on blue is extremely pronounced right now. Green has always been my favorite color, but even I'm ambivalent about the degree of imbalance. Oh hell- I still love this card!

I'm not very fond of huge creatures but this is just awesome. Reason being that this is an 8/8 creature for siz mana already useful. But then give him trample and make him uncounterable

Yeah, the artwork is kind of odd....they made an attempt at forced-perspective to emphasize it's size, and it sort of half-worked. Also, it looks like a giant naked mole rat. Terrifying.
But this is actually nice. Nothing fancy, just a big cheap fattie. This is what green does. It's probably the only colour that could pull off a 6-mana 8/8 with two abilities. This can never become the norm, of course, but nice once in a blue moon.

So WOTC was sittin around smoking their weed and one guy (who was relatively sober) was like, Dude, turn 6 8/8. (Giggles) Guy number two. DUUUDE, give him TRAMPLE!! (More giggles) Then the third guy was like... dudes... ya ready? He can't be countered. (Silence.. followed by the largest recorded giggle fit in human history and every blue player in the room silently weaping on the inside.)
The same group then went on to create the ENTIRE eldrazi set.

What could blue answer this with, you ask?
"Why fight the body when you can dominate the mind that rules it?"

It's like my Rattata is in the top percentage of Rattata!

Another blue answer would be
"Life is a maze. This is one of its dead ends."
