All these years later, and still very playable. Considering that the next set is gonna bring us back to Mirrodin and all the artifact madness that entails, I'd keep a close eye on this guy.

I didn't like the art at first, but it is growing on me.
Perhaps the flavour text should have been changed to "four hours" as an allusion to the number of turns it takes for this guy to kill a player unopposed. Three does roll off the tongue easier though.......

Jugs returns. Good to see you, for I have missed my Jugs.

Hooray for an uncommon that makes UWR Planeswalker control lose power!
I prefer lodestone golem, but I guess I'm just too accustomed to pumping ornithopters for fly-over. Besides, wall of denial is rotateing out. Still very playable as it forces them to use their attackers to block.

I love playing with this card so much, if only because their weapons cannot hurt me.

This guy is up there in Elspeth vs Tezzeret. But... why?
I'm not much of a follower of recent Magic, but I do remember clearly Walls being wiped out to give Defender its place. Now, back to walls? Or are Defenders also considered Walls?
There might be a few walls now and then, but cards with the Wall subtype aren't really common, and not present at all in Duel Decks. It's a shame this card isn't useful at all, or at least, as a wall-piercing machine.
Have I missed something?

'Wall' is now a creature type. Most (all?) Walls have the static ability Defender, but not all creatures with Defender are Walls.

Are walls really that much of a threat any more? I mean, wall of denial sure, but it'll rotate out on october 1st.
Wall of frost is the only wall with notably high toughness, and an annoying blocking effect, but even then it can't block creatures with any form of evasion.
It's nice this guy got new art and all, but honestly walls just aren't dominant enough to warrant a dedicated trump card any more. I'd rather just attack around (or over ) them.

I think this card is underrated. Having a creature with a power of five on turn 4 (or earlier with things like etherium sculptor) is important because it puts the pressure on the opponent right away. Throw a juggernaut down and just watch him destroy!

I was playing someone in limited, and he played Juggernaut. Being the only thing on the field worth controlling, I played Mind Control on it. My opponent yells "CHARLES NOOO"
That was the end of all silence in the room XD

a 5/3 for 4 colorless(!) mana is very good in limited. the other abilities make this just more awesome.

It has wall hate because walls were a lot more common back in the day, and they can't reprint it and just remove the ability now that walls have been split from Defender. Also, the wall hate has never, ever been the point of Juggernaut, just an added flavor bonus. This was a card designed from the "top down" to represent a siege engine (strong but fragile, aggressive, can't be stopped by fortifications). The point of the artifact is the 4cmc 5/3 body. The wall hate is just added flavor.

5/3 for four is pretty nice in Blue, if you need a beater.

It's not a trump card, its an efficient beater.

New art is terrible, but the flavor text is pretty good. Oh, the card itself? Meh, outdated.

I love how it has it's own creature type. You'd think they would make it a Construct or something lame like that, but NAW IT'S A JUGGERNAUT
