I already had a boner for Colossal Might. This is just stupid.

I love this card for a few reasons: It's a 4/4 for 4 and it's art is beautiful. The bloodrush ability is pretty good, but I wouldn't use it if I didn't have to. All and all, really good card!
4.5/5

IT'S CHANNEL. NOT BLOODRUSH. DAMMIT WIZARDS. RESPECT KAMIGAWA.
Anyways, this is stupid good. Seriously, I'd use this just for the BloodChannel alone.

This is one of the best uncommons along with Vampire Nighthawk and the charms (though not quite as good as either) in Standard at the moment.

The best Bloodrush card, and it's uncommon. This is odd.

Usually better than Colossal Might, except that it's also an on curve creature when you have nothing to Might.
Easily the best of the bloodrushes. Don't need a bloodrush deck to use him, just replace your combat trick with this guy, runhim in an aggro deck, call it good. He'll tear things up no problem.
Note that colossal might still has a few places it belongs:
-Next to Bloodbraid Elf and Violent Outburst
-Next to Kiln Fiend or other "instants and sorceries matter" cards
-On Isochron Scepter (why might? Fun)
-In pauper
-It's nice that it can be used on the defense
and probably a couple other situations I'm not thinking of. Still, this is an awesome card that usually plays as a better CM but with options.

I played this before Innistrad rotated in a R/G werewolf deck, and it got absolutely silly. I would attack with a bunch of big creatures, and my opponent only lets a 2/2 through, but then that 2/2 turns into a 6/6. For 2 mana, I might add.

In limited, is great. In standard, similarly impressive. A lot of the time it's a 2-mana kill your blocker and deal 2 to your face. Hardcasting it is a little sad, but a 4/4 is still beefy, and while it dies to smiter, not many other creatures that are playable can trade with or kill it during combat. The real problem is that control decks respond to your bloodrush with Azorius Charm or a kill spell, and that is a big blowout, in terms of mana, card advantage, and tempo. Picking the right time to bloodrush is a good skilltester, since you have to read what your opponent has in hand.
