Baleful Strix and Scavenging Ooze. Wizards likes to snuck these outrageous guys into their box sets as one-ofs, knowing they would become legacy-staples. It's all a conspiracy, man.

By Gatherer standards, this card is equal in power to Exodia, as it combos with both Doubling Season -and- Sanguine Bond .

From a flavor standpoint, should an Ooze EVER have an instant speed ability?

Precursor to the scavenge mechanic from Return to Ravnica, perhaps?

Opened 3 of these (1 of them foil) in a Sealed Deck Tourni. I top 8ed and in my prize I opened another. Almost quadrupled the entrance fee with just those 4 cards!

Among other things, Green is a very strong color right now; between Junk decks, Deathrite, and the myriad of awesome G/B kill spells + zoo, it has a home as a main-deckable counter to many decks and an efficient beater even when his best matchups aren't around.
Also, as a huge Ooze nerd, this enables a 2-Drop in ooze tribal!
T2 - This guy
T3 - Manaplasm or Predator Ooze
T4 - Mwonvuli acid-moss
T5 - Acidic Slime
T6 - Gelatinous Genesis for 3x 3/3 oozes!
Any excess mana just gets eaten by this guy. He also doesn't conflict with other oozes, which is nice because many oozes don't work together very well (and most ooze enchantments specify turning a non-ooze into an ooze, or similar.)
