At the pre-release, my friend was mana flooded the whole game and finally managed to get his 2/3 infect out. He swings and says "Just take it, man. Whatever." I block with a Sylvok replica and he scoops. Turns out he had this in hand and was ready to turn his guy into a 10/11 FTW. Don't underestimate this thing's use in limited. Ever.

This card is garbage. Any way you look at it, using in a deck means you just wasted a spot that could have had something better.

Mutagenic Growth
Giant Growth
Prey's Vengeance
Vines of Vastwood
Mirran Mettle
Primal Bellow
Just sayin'...
EDIT: This card is actually pretty damn good. I wouldn't run it in STANDARD. But any other format it works very well.

A list of cards that its HILARIOUS with
blighted agent
spinebiter
Either of those mothers hit someone beefed up with this guy and its a MAJOR chunk out of their poison tolerance .
You could also use it at ANY time to boost a dude with Livewire lash and do some nice infect AND grant him a few extra points . But Giant growth is better in some situations ,but if you have the mana ,it can WIN the game !
I don't know any other unblock-able infect guys but any unblock-able infect-er or flyer is nasty .
I would give it a 4/5 if I could comment but I cant for some reason ....

I absolutely hate what this card has done for Infect. But it doesn't make it a bad card.
4/5 for the shenanigans it can pull.

A stellar way to blow any leftover mana that you have (which tends to be a LOT, in a mono green deck). Use this with some Mana Reflections and some Basalt monoliths to give one of your unblocked creatures +infinity/+infinity until end of turn.
After doing this combo, proceed to flip over the table you are using, take off your shirt, and FALCON PUNCH your opponent - he had it coming

Crap. I just got confirmation bias by flavor text.
