As someone has already mentioned, this dude is mean as a blocker since you can tap him after you declare blockers to double the counters.

However, if you give this dude Vigilance with something like Accorder's Shield you effectively get to use the same strategy while attacking. If they chump block you, don't tap him and you'll still have him as a defender that can double in size. If they let him through or try to kill him, double the counters.

It goes without saying that he's also great with Trample on him, so perhaps the best thing to do is equip him with Sword of Vengeance (+2/+0, First Strike, Vigilance, Trample, Haste).

This+Experiment Kraj+Gilder Bairn. Double Kraj's counters by tapping him, then double them by untapping!

Heartstone or a similar card to reduce activated ability costs
Voltaic Construct
Solarion, paid for with any number of types of mana.

For an example, say it was paid with 2 mana colours. Assume you have 7 mana (since you played this last turn).
Starts as 2/2.
{T} - 4/4
Pay {1} for VC to untap it.
{T} - 8/8
Pay {1} for VC to untap it.
{T} - 16/16
Pay {1} for VC to untap it.
{T} - 32/32
Pay {1} for VC to untap it.
{T} - 64/64
Pay {1} for VC to untap it.
{T} - 128/128
Pay {1} for VC to untap it.
{T} - 256/256
Pay {1} for VC to untap it.
It is now free to attack.

You get the point; doubling can really be obscenely powerful. Even without the Heartstone, it gets to 16/16 with 3 taps.

For 2wubrg, I expect more then a 5/5 that slowly pumps itself. Evasion would have been nice, or haste.

@TheHandyman
No, purple is not a valid color choice as it does not exist in the multiverse... Pink on the other hand...

@oristiti actually purple is a relevant mana color in unhinged. If you have in purple contact lens or something similar to change your eye color to purple and then summon an Avatar of Me purple becomes an actual color and therefore can be used for sunburst. ANYTING IS POSSIBLE IN UNHIGNIED!!!

If only it had haste.

I do like myself some exponential growth, though.
