I wanna play this guy in a deck soo bad, just for laughs. Cuz if you can win a game with this guy, you have earned the right to yell 'WAR BEARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" in their faces :")

The best use I can see in this is his warrior subtype. Other than that he's pretty old school fail

Come on, he should get a 5/5 just for that name alone.

With a name like that, you just know he's the frontman for a Gaelic speed metal band.

OMG I love this card! The epic flavour that has nothing to do with a 6/5 vanilla, not much cunning about that. This, combined with an absurd multicoloured mana cost and an art that looks like a sketch, even by the standard of those days, it's so hilariously epic fail :D

a 6/5 in RedBlack with no drawback(bar casting cost, which was always high for RedBlack back then) WAS pretty cunning, in those days >.<

They need "remake" this guy like they did for Jedit Ojanen (Jedit Ojanen --> Jedit Ojanen of Efrava). Who's with me?

If it wasn't for his name, this dude would be terrible. As it is I want to make him my EDH general just to make people do double takes.

I mean, it's not easy for a human to get to 6/5 straight combat ability. Ignoring that casting cost he's got to be a badass for that.

Does "appearance" have some archaic meaning I might not know? Because I don't see how his appearance is either devious or cunning.

Eighteen years later and I finally get that "he bites as well as he barks" is a pun.

Well yeah if you have bark for teeth you're going to bite as well as you bark. It's practically tautological.

This was terrible even when it was printed. You could get a Shivan Dragon in fewer colors for one mana less.
