This would get a 4.5 if it was a Zombie Crocodile.

This was decent in limited sealed events. Most of the removal in Zendikar is non-black creature, and if you ran it with something that could get you land at instant speed (like Harrow) you could hit for 7 and dodge a Disfigure or something. Still, now that no one is really going to be drafting Zendikar it's bad to being pretty bad.

And yes, the "no blocking" thing on black creatures that are clearly already inferior to white counterparts Steppe Lynx is quite annoying.

White gets steppe lynx...
Red gets plated geopede...

And black gets 3/1 that can't block for CMC 4 with the same landfall trigger? That's twice that of the geopede, and four times that of the lynx! I know blacks' bigger creatures (especially demons) are supposed to have drawbacks, but come on! This should have been a 1/2 for 2 or a 2/1 for 3. And it should have been able to block.

The "cardname can't block" clause on black critters prevents them from being op, but also encourages the opponent to attack you more often, leaving up less blockers for things like a giant 7/5 crocodile on your swing back the following turn. This would be a much higher pick with trample and 2 toughness.
