As an EDH general, he works well with Pariah and Worship.

He's like Konda, except instead of a worthy opponent to get big he just needs some buddies.
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say he's probably Rare because he's not just good for Boros, but for Avacyn Human aggro. He's a perfect candidate for Soulbinding abilities and works well with spells like Thatcher Revolt.

Am I the only person who completely hates the design of Tajic? He's a great card as a 4 drop indestructible 2/2that grows to a 7/7 if he has some buddies along with him, but that's just it for me. He doesn't scream guild champion/maze runner to me. Just compare to some of the other guild champions from this set or even old Ravnica. Anyways, good stats and abilities, bad design IMO.

Nice little combo with stone giant. Give him flying, swing to make him a 7/7, then at the end of turn nothing happens.
Not to mention the image it puts in your head...

Solid card. I can see him being a kitchen table superstar for any Boros considering how he dodges a lot of removal and how large he be a 7/7 when swinging for only four mana. Obviously in constructed there are other better options, but he is still a good card either way.
4/5 for me.

Tired of the "Dies to Doom Blade" logic, actually, so it's refreshing that it does not apply, here. I was even surprised to find that my casual rogue deck gets rid of him with a simple Stab Wound ;)

Wait... So with all that armor he still dies from a Stab Wound?

Pretty good commander for my boros themed battalion deck
4/5 --- once again, good but not great
... now if it gave all creatures attacking +5/+5 then it'd be a whole different ball game

Built in Darksteel Plate. This guy as a general is almost strictly better then Cho-Manno, Revolutionary. Now, I don't think you want to go all in on voltron (which is an option), you want to be able to trigger battalion on a regular basis so in general, your going to need around at least 1/3 of your deck to be creatures making it less voltron and more regular r/w beatdown. Voltron is your backup plan. I mean, they wrath you and you will still have this guy a bunch of equipment and no blockers. Just suit him up with all your gear and swing in for that last bit of general damage. That being said, I shoved a ton of recursion in the deck. So with a general like this, you can really play any style of deck you want, be it, swarm, voltron, beatdown, control even.
The best thing this card has going for it is as a general is allowing for an EDH deck to have a very high threat density. While Lightning Greaves and ... (see all)

boros gives me a headache. stop being so dang broken. boros charm, boros reckoner, now this? what's wrong with you, Wizards?
@mirosith
Are you not noticing that in any Boros deck worth it's salt he's a 7/7 indestructible creature?
