I think Baloth Woodcrasher is a better card in standard. You can build around the woodcrasher with crazy shenanigans like:
Khalni Heart Expedition
Fetchland
Harrow
Sac Khalni.
That's 6 land drops, making a total of +24/+24. So you have a 28/28 Trampler. Then give him Vines.
I still think this is an awesome card though, pulling him out in Limited really rocks.

6 for 8/8 is good enough but cant be coutered and trample just makes that card the only card that is positive sign for green in zendikar.

This card could have had a draw back such as "sacrifice a creature when Terra Stomper enters play" and still have been a great card. 6cmc for an 8/8 trampler that can't be countered that has generic mana in its cost is amazing.

Green is getting closer to its rightful place with creatures. It still needs a high level creature type like Angel/Demon/Dragon, and better unsolvability, but this shows they are trying.

Power 9 took a dump on force of nature. Now without the power 9, remove his drawback and give him another nice ability, and hes still in the dollar rare bin.
This is not power creep... This is learning what makes creatures playable.

the card is ridiculously good, probably a new gold standard for green fatties now.
but the art is ridiculously bad. a case of 'When bad art happens to good cards'

Slap Spider Umbra on this guy and you can block just about anything you want.
Or you can trample people to death without any comboes at all :D
