Dogatoar (Dog+Gator+Boar). Not wolf.

Like the most recent illustration of Tundra Wolves, that doesn't look like a *** wolf. That creature is more boar-like than anything.

@Trygon_Predator: Dominaria is still suffering after-effects of the timestorms (see Armored Cancrix's flavor text).
As for the card, it's elegantly designed: powerful, flexible and flavorful without being broken. Probably the card I most want to open in M14.

Considering the Art it should have been a "Hound", maybe with additional Mutant, Wolf or Beast subtype.

if this was said already sorry, but i didnt read every comment: this plus illusionary armor proved to work very well in limited.
Also, about the illustration; people are saying this is not a wolf. From what plane of exsistence? I mean, who is to say that on this world this is not how all wolves look? I am by no means a "vorthos", but just trying to point out that in Magic things may not be exactly how they are on Earth....

I often laugh out loud looking at the art on this card, imagining that witchstalker is trying his honest-to-goodness best to smile. I have seen dogs smile exactly like this. He's actually kinda adorable.

Besides the obvious implications for Bant Hexproof, I think this has the potential to be the best enemy hoser in the cycle. It's effect isn't as immediately valuable as Lifebane Zombie's, but it starts as a 3/3 for 3, can't be removed except by a sweeper, and can grow past its already considerable stats if the opponent gets desperate.

Great Sable Wolf? If this doesn't get countered, this is pretty useful, and, like the other enemy color hate creatures in this set, might be worth maindecking simply as a 3/3 hexproof creature for 3.

THIS THING! This is what I see in my nightmares! A well costed, on curve, unremovable monster that just grows and grows and grows...
I keep thinking I can just Doom Blade it whenever I see it, then I see the hexproof. Its not even like Lifebane Zombie can deal with it, since with Elvish Mystic this drops on turn 2. At least the zombie has a late-game upside, but... man, green just keeps getting crazier.

A 3/3 hexproof for three, with an icing on the cake ability, and no drawbacks to boot? I'll buy a playset!
