It either does nothing or it outright wins you the game. Pretty funky. 3/5

I see no reason to reprint giant growth when we have a card that is almost always better in any green deck.

I had a 2/2 unblocked attacker become a 13/13 when I played with my Eldrazi deck. My friend didn't like going to 7 health that quickly.

Might of the Masses + swarm deck = one bad day for someone using Vendetta. oh, one of your creatures is dead and I'm only taking one damage, oh wait, I'm taking ten damage.

I run a modified Eldrazi Arisen red/green deck. Someone had a Lord of Shatterskull P-a-ss leveled to 2 and enchanted with Armored Ascension. I used Act of Treason on it and then played this, and killed him with his own 7/7 pumped up to a 15/15 using this spell.

berserk is considered one of the best green cards ever, and this doesn't even get 4 stars? ramp into a few multikicked Wolfbriar Elementals and you're getting +10/+10 at instant speed for one mana.

With the right deck you can use this to pretty easily kill a fatty with a chump blocker, especially in token decks. Goodbye Giant Growth!

I run four of these in my mono-green infect deck. Slap this on whatever creature they don't block and all of a sudden they have 7 or 8 poison counters. I dont understand why anyone would rate this lower than giant growth.

I love hitting one of my creatures with 1 or 2 of these in my token spam deck. The initial reaction is usually "Pfft, so what if it's a 20/20, it doesn't have flying or trample". Laying down an Overwhelming Stampede usually changes their attitude extremely quickly. Is attacking someone with 15 or more creatures that are 20/20 or up with trample overkill? Yes. Is it necessary? No, not at all. Is it fun? No doubt.

Giant growth is one of two cards that have been printed in every core set (the other is giant spider). It is such a classic card, and still powerful. If you have been playing a while, you can likely recall many more occasions where GG won you the game than when MotM won it for you. Almost every green booster is designed around GG. The competitive ones are sometimes better, sometimes worse. You maximize the cards by playing so that it is usually more. I am glad they reprint GG, but it is cards like this and groundswell and might of krosa that make this game more strategic and enjoyable. PS: play this with Nacatl War-Pride
