I bought a couple fallen empires packs a little while back and I got one of these- or, rather, a half of one of these. It was cleanly cut in half at one point before it ended up in the pack, with some weird ridges above an impressively smooth cut.
I kept it... and taped it to the top of one of my Trained Orggs. 3 mana vanilla 6/6 beast? In red? It makes me chuckle to wonder if people would even play that in Standard. Everything has to have an ability lol

Terrible, though admittedly creatures like this aren't meant to block anyway, so the drawback isn't as bad as it first seems.

Interesting move on the part of the creative team to reference the poor quality of a card in its own flavor text.

Actually, I guess it's not that terrible. In the type of deck one might play this, I the idea will be to attack every turn anyway.

The stats aren't bad, but that ability just makes eyes roll. Orcs were kind of lame to begin with, what with the whole "coward" angle- even goblins, despite having less intelligence, would actually fight for you, most of the time. I'm glad they're not in the game anymore.

3/2 for 2Red with a drawback, and people wonder why nobody plays with orcs?
