There seems to be a lot of folk of the opinion that this guy isn't a creature you control. Gets big in a hurry.

Plays very nicely with Overwhelming Stampede for a quick finish. Especially in token decks.

If you can, IMMEDIATELY attach Mask of Avacynor similar to him, ( whispersilk cloak , canopy cover, etc.). Otherwise, he will be bolted as soon as he hits the table, if he hasn't been countered already. Play Silence before you cast him and your good.

@ Salient: That handshake included an Entomb. I guess it's not so secret.

This card is almost perfect. My only complaint is that if this didn't target only creatures you control, it would create madness in multiplayer (actually, it's the same complaint I have about Onyx Mage).

Doesn't work with Training Grounds because it costs only one mana, but... come on, 7/7 for ONE MANA.
May I say the man looks just dashing in Lightning Greaves?

Slap Gigantiform on him and enjoy the silly flavor. I'll bet my right arm that the names of those cards aren't a coincidence.
It's quite a steep mana cost, but thankfully there are ways around it. Goes really well with Awakening Zone.

Remember, if someone tries to lightning bolt him, he can target himself with his own ability to make him a 7/7.

Fun but seems to be walking into a day of judgment. But you could get some swings with just this guy or maybe even +1.

I saw a lot of hate for this guy when he came out. A 1/1 for 8 is terrible. But he's not a 1/1 for 8, he's a 7/7 for 9, that makes your germ tokens 7/7s too.
