I like him, because with Reach of Branches and Morbid Bloom can become very strong creature with nice lifeflow.

@spoonish
Doubling Season doubles any amount of counters placed on a permanent you control.
This guy devouring 1 guy without it gets him +2/+2, and 2 life.
With Season out, he gets +4/+4, and 2 life.
I've always called Doubling Season a "calculator card".
Eventually things get rediculous.
As far as rating the card in general, I agree with most of the previous posters.
This guy can be a big deal if your Creakwood Liege has been out for a while,
Or your token production is maxed.
Or if it's just being a B.A. in general.

I agree, this guy is underrated.He is lifegain and muscle in one. I call him the Lizard King. He can help you out many different situations, that's what friends are for, gettin you outta jams.

I like to combine him with a Deathgreeter or two.

I kicked ass with this card. I really love it. Just imagin it in a lizard deck with a bunch of weak lizards and tolkens out! Every time I put it out it's at least a 9/9.

Creakwood Liege out for a few turns + this while Savra, Queen of the Golgari is on the field = pure win.

Such a low rating? Really? I think it's a fantastic devour creature. Any devour creature I would use needs to have a seondary ability which stops you from being completely screwed when you devour most of your creatures and then your devourer gets zapped. The life gain achieves this perfectly.

A zombified creature that eats other creatures to increase its own vitality? Well done black-green, well done.

This low rating surprises me... If you manage to combine it with Necromancer's covenant and Behemoth Sledge, you got a freakin' monster. And a lot of extra life.
