Now confirmed as not being in Magic 2012. So long Giant Growth, we'll miss you.

Still one of my favorite cards ever, and such a staple. This is one of two cards to make it through every base set since alpha.

Why don't people play this?

I like to call this "The Middle Man"

He's what all pump spells are (or should be) compared to.

To this day I'm still floored by the fact that absolutely no one plays this card competitively. Maybe everyone's bored with it? I don't know, maybe there's something I'm missing. I'm no pro by any means, but my green deck will always have room for Giant Growth.

I messed up my post as the mana symbols didn't appear so I'll just repost.

As of late, I think Vines of Vastwood has replaced this card in terms of buffing. However, with the infect mechanic bringing back poison counters, I think this card will see a lot of play again. The single Green for Giant Growth as opposed to GreenGreen for Vines can make a difference if the infect deck can't fit room for mana ramping.

I say infect, muhahaHAHAHA! Plague stinger's friend, the little guy goes from being a tiny sting to suddenly almost halfway killing the opponent. Trying to make an infect deck with this and vampire's bite (without kicker ofc), cannot wait to have it ready to play.

With the titans and infect cycling out, M13 would have been a good time to bring this back. And yet it's not. I smell a new and nasty mechanic coming in Return to Ravnica.
