Yep, high toughness, specifically toughness 7, meaning it can block a titan and live. And at the same cost, this is definitely a card to watch.

At first I thought it was a lame enters-the-battlefield ability, and only searched libraries. Then I realized I had been grossly misreading the card, and discovered that it's actually incredibly cool. Perhaps not useful outside of limited and casual, but definitely cool.

Now THIS is a frikin SPIDER. I always though Giant Spider and it's like where just no strong enough to warrent placement. I'd rather have one of green's many ways to just outright kill or disable anything that flies in one shot. But this guy is beef. Like people are saying, 6 cc really isn't bad, especially for green.
Just for this block, build a green/white spider deck around this guy and have 4 auramancers ready to recover lost webs. Brilliant.

If this said you couldn't search your graveyard, this would be unplayable.
Amazing flavor though, with this and the web combined.

Excellent odd creature type lord! Now if only they'd reprint Swarmyard...

I'm sure we have Doug Beyer to thank for cool top-down designs like this -and even if he didn't design this card, I can see his influence all over the set.

4/5 for usefulness, 0.5/5 for arachnophobia

Tiggurix, insects have six legs and three body sections. Arachnids are more diverse in SHAPE. You could possibly mistake an ant for a beetle (if you glanced it, and it was dark...I dunno, bad example?) but never a spider for a scorpion. And they have higher toughness because they're Green's answer to flying. In reality, some should have first strike, like jumping spiders, and high power.
