Meh. Not a fan of this card. I guess fatties are part of the ecosystem, but I feel there are much more interesting things to do with 11CMC. This guy gets cheated out, and that's just boring.

A cool card, but the sheer mana cost is a bit prohibitive. Still, this card is something every Timmy dreams of.

Sure, he's big and all, but he's rather easy to get rid of in comparison to Inkwell Leviathan. He's too expensive to cast, so he won't see play in limited. And in constructed, even though you can use Tinker and Master Transmuter and such, he's just going to be Cryptic Commanded, Path to Exiled, Swords to Plowshares'd or whatever. He's ugly, too.

Have you seen Darkseteel Colossus's evil twin?
If not, meet the Blightsteel Colossus: http://bit.ly/h3iT0O

Im gonna be running a manabarbs deck...seems like a bad creature to put in there, right?
Well not with Lurking Predators, Elvish piper, and any other creature-fixers in Zendikar! They wont be able to keep up!

How about this? I bought the Presence of Mind theme deck (2010 core set, foil is Djinn of Wishes) and this card was in the booster that came with it. Djinn of Wishes+Sage Owl+ Darksteel Colossus. lol I expect this combo to work out for me quite nicely in the future.

I have one in my pet artifact deck. I fetch him up with Fabricate and cheat him into play with the Transmuter. Everyone proceeds to target me soon after. Easily my favorite card, in terms of both flavor and ability. He hits the table with a huge *slam* that no one can really ignore, and can kill an unguarded opponent in two hits, on top of being extremely resilient. The best thing about M10, in my opinion, was the decision to reprint him.

Blightsteel Colossus truly a card that will single-handedly win you a game.
