This guy is a serious bomb. Nothing like a huge pit-fighting giant that messes up even the most powerful cards.
Too great to see him eat faces when he's swinging around as a 27/27 lifelink flying trample double strike protection from everything that exiles everything he attacks.
Emrakul, bow before your master.

Leonine is in reference to being like a lion/feline, not that his "race" is leonin, any more than he is a relative of Jedit Ojanen of Efrava or Mirri, Cat Warrior. Consider this: there are panther warriors, too. There is also Felidar Sovereign, which could be assumed to be "Felidar" and not "Leonin." Get it?
Leonine is pronounced LEO-9, while leonin is pronounced LEO-nin.

Forgot to rate...also check out the extended artwork to see a dead creature lying at Jareths feet!

The following is a complete list of creatures that can defeat a blocking Jareth, assuming no shenanigans:
- B.F.M. (Big Furry Monster)
- Emrakul, the Aeons Torn
- Worldspine Wurm
So yeah, he's a pretty good wall. Fun in EDH if you can give him vigilance, reach and/or Entangler. Not so great in "regular" constructed formats due to the high cost and heavy colour requirement, but you can't have everything.

@Hawk_man
Although I wouldn't want to pay 6 for just a wall, I'd be fine paying 6 for a wall that obliterates anything it blocks, is almost impossible to remove, and can also swing for 4 unblockable damage each turn. Also, you shouldn't be comparing this to the other pit fighters. Just because you are using Jareth doesn't mean your opponent is using another card in the cycle. Besides, if you're worried about facing pit fighters, that's what the rest of your deck is for.
