First strike here, Flavorwise, is that you are ambushed by the spider.
Look at the art. The Spider just dropped down on this guy and is all like "Hi, lol." and the guy is, well, probably in need of new pants.

It's a subterranean spider, sort of like Giant Trap Door Spider (which also lacks reach). Flavor-wise, spiders' reach comes from the ability to weave a Web, which isn't often done underground.

With greens power booster instants this is a creature killer.

Here's the thing about it that sucks: It will never surprise opponents. They will know they are attacking into it, and furthermore, its ability isn't even viable for offense! This would have been more playable if it had Flash, of even if it was just a 3/2 First Strike. Alas.

Even more curious: where did his reach go?

Ah, Homelands, where a 2/2 green creature for 3G with an ability that doesn't always work is considered perfectly logical! Just one of the many reasons why that set was so awful!

Why does green get first strike again?
