The Elder Dragons are like my ex-girlfriends, expensive and high maintenance...

LAWL I was only 2 years old when rampage was a thing.
This card, at least for me, represents Wizards not yet aware of how to make their own game. Chromium could have been the damn poster boy for shroud, which was actually around in 1994. It could have made him a force to be reckoned with like some of his bros.
But no.
Our chum chromium gets an ability which is absolutely useless 99.99% of the time unless he has trample. Which is in precisely none of his colors.
This coupled with the fact that Wizards wasted the BLUE Elder Dragon is just sad.
No wonder Bolas killed this poor guy.

Eh, not that great. Personally, I prefer Firefox.

@Land_comment
He can't kill Arcades Sabboth, unless they throw in extra blockers for no reason. He trades off one-for-one for the others.
Rampage only triggers for each blocker beyond the first. If they block with one creature he gets no bonus, if they block with 3 he gets +4/+4.

@Colossus_of_Darkstee: except for the fact that he is not an artifact creature, in-game or in-universe. Before you make comments like that do your research first. Here's a good place to start:

Oh gods, it's Chromium, the Elder Dragon! And he's on a rampage! Quick, we need something to stop him before he decimates our-

... Good work everyone. A job well done.
Christ, if you're not gonna give him trample, at least let him have vigilance or something to make it remotely beneficial to actually attack with him.

Oh man, I remember this. It used to be the most feared creature around, many years ago.

Should have been in From the Vault: Legends (because Bolas has already had enough prints.)
Don't make me list all the reasons why, it's painful to even think about. Even ANOTHER Bolas would have been appreciated as a historical nod to, you know, the set called LEGENDS and the cycle responsible for BIRTHING the EDH/Commander format!
Instead...we got Kresh. Who the hell is Kresh? some...guy. from Jund. Who's not Vaevictis Asmadi. So?

Chromium will always be the coolest creature ever made, period.
