For those mentioning Shield of the Oversoul, Bant Sureblade is another great two-drop that is less restrictive (you can pay U instead of G if you wish), and will also have first strike. You can also enchant him with Favor of the Overbeing or Steel of the Godhead which also makes him more versatile. The advantages that Watchwolf has are higher toughness, and no reliance on controlling another multicolored permanent for extra effects.

Considering you're looking at paying at least 4 CMC for a 3/3 creature, this is about as mindblowing as a "vanilla" creature gets. Play it early and put some cheap equipment and/or auras on him if you like.

Adorable :D
Good card, though this usually ended up getting replaced by Loxodon Hierarches in my decks. Which is to say, a 3/3 for two isn't all that overpowered as people might assume, and this card pretty much sets the standard for creatures today (see Garruk's Companion, Whooly Thoctar).

@ Arach...phobia
Yea, he's just so hungry for your adoration. I bet that drool coming out of his mouth and that ravenous look in his eye are because he thinks you have treats =)
{G}{W} + 3/3 + no downsides = good card

this is a very good creature to play immediately on your second turn. 2 mana for a 3/3

Turn 1: Plains, Sunspring Expedition
Turn 2: Forest, watchwolf
Turn 3: Land, Shield of the oversoul
Turn 4: Land, Armadillo cloak
Soon your opponent will be dead, you will have near 50 health, and you will be swinging with an indestructible trample lifelink flying 7/7.
