I don't understand why this gets bumped to the rare slot, with all the lame mythics (Warren Instigator?) out there.

On the other hand...I'm glad I'll be picking up more copies of it.

Edit: This is a really flavorful card. It's not just another big green creature. It's hard to kill short of a straight up destruction spell, for one thing. For another, it is a replica of the Hydra of Greek mythology. Yes, mythology...as in mythic? The titans are a cycle, all based on the same mechanic. I don't see how that warrants mythic status, as opposed to a unique and interesting card like this one. And I certainly don't see how a little goblin who can hit for 2 damage and drag other goblins into play would be mythic either. But then, I guess not everyone is as into flavor as I am.

Edit of the edit: I'm not saying Warren Instigator is bad. That would be absurd. I'm saying he's not mythic in flavor. And I don't want to comment on him, I'm commenting on why this card should be m... (see all)

Someone played him with 3/3 and I thought that was a mistake as I just lightning bolt'ed him right into the graveyard. Definately go for 4 or more if you know your opponent is running a red deck of anykind.

I would like to know... does deathtouch work on this card? i still think the ability to prevent damage will certainly prevent deathtouch from killing it, pls correct me if i'm wrong. thanks

If you have a Leyline of Vitality and a Protean Hydra in play, will Mystifying Maze kill the Hydra?

Wouldn't this card have a hard time killing larger creatures cause of the fact that it loses counters on it when attacked?

On another note braid of fire and upwelling nasty combo with this guy.

Terrible Card and it Should Be a Uncommon or Maybe Even a Common and it Has Been Mythic Before?

Edit: I did not understand that the Last ability could trigger more then 1 time. 5/5 Update.

This, with doubling season *gasp* this would be a monstrosity in no time!! Bring out a Hex Parasite along with it and you will be good to go!

Truly love this card, haven't gotten a change to get it out yet though
