Playing a 4/4 baloth for five mana is a little less than average. Playing a 4/4 baloth for two mana is just ridiculous.

One of the best traps, simply because a 4/4 flash beast is often worth playing all by itself, especially in limited.

This doesn't just mess with artifacts, with blue, or with quest for the holy relic decks. This also screws with Kuldotha Rebirth decks.
EDIT: Post Mirrodin Besieged, this isn't going to be as effective against Kuldotha Red, which is dropping 7 bodies on turn 1 thanks to that fun combo with Mox Opal and Kuldotha Rebirth and all of it's little battle cry friends like Signal Pest.

We did a Zendikar/Besieged/Besieged draft a while ago because we were bored, and this guy was absolutely hilarious.

I love the flavor. This is the best type of trap and I'm glad it found its way into Zendikar. The art is confusing though. I can't tell if the guy is trying to get away or if he is just relaxing and has no idea what is going on.

I think 5 mana is fair considering it has flash. 2 mana is just gravy.

This is one that almost foreshadowed the upcoming Artifact block. Cool to see sideboard play in SOM block

If it had said "Put a 4/4 green Beast creature token onto the battlefield unless your opponent is a Jedi." Then you would HAVE to enchant it with a Rancor after. ;D

This card should see play. 5CMC 4/4 with flash that costs 1G less if they played an artifact? Awesome.
