Hes fun in a casual RDWs or something ...Play him with Goblin Tunneler (a GREATLY overlooked card in my oppinion) and a few mana ...He does a few poison counters EVERY turn unless your opponent kills goblin tunnler or him ,something only Black and Red are adept at ( white and green have a FEW ways to kill them ,sure , but not that many .
Here are the cards and situations to watch out for :
Removal : ( Black ,mostly)
Doomblade
Go for the throat
victem of night
and a mirad of other crazy black cards
red can really only deal with the tunneler at this point but a few cards can kill him ,though at least he was a lightning rod for removal ....
White could
O-ring him
pascify him
Green
ambush viper
Blue : counter him with their instants
He could work as a side deck guy .
Oh and you could give him flying with an artifact for 1 or give him flyng and hexproof ,he's worth it .

djflo: that's a good point. I guess the idea is that in the new order of phyrexia he doesn't want to swing those fists. His /purpose/ is to breathe infectious smog on the incompleat and so that's what he does.
Also I could be wrong but it kinda seems to me like A) his fists are turned to ash or very fragile stone, rendering them useless and B) He is strapped down to avoid him moving around.

Normally I'm not a huge fan of the Phyrexian cards, but this guy is pretty cool.

He's a creature with 0 power who is a must block. That alone deserves respect.

I've always liked firebreathing, and this guy pushes it. I'll just mention a few of my personal favorites when it comes to pushing him through:
Goblin Tunneler
Artful Dodge
Bladed Pinions
Just wish there was more {R} infect support.
