Makes your opponent think twice, or focus on this creature instead of the hulk you just played.

I use this guy a lot in multiplayer games - the more the better. He quickly reaches a ridiculous size even when everyone is trying to be careful, as sooner or later SOMEONE has to cast something and someone else then has to play Keep Up.

Lots of fun in a deck with Apocalypse Hydra who can then use his pinging ability with impunity, or just on his own as a farly cheap investment for a late-game monster.

My friend runs a blue/green deck with these.
He can move the counters onto Triskilion, a flyer, or 2/2 unblockable for GU which I forget the name of.
So many ways of getting through his opponents guard.

Awesome card, particularly in a multi-player match... what a beast. With a strong defensive enchantment, this guy could be a game-winner.

WotC, good idea putting this into one of your multiplayer preconstructed decks. He shines more in multiplayer then he ever did in two-player constructed.

Just got my butt kicked with a combo with this and Spike Weaver , lol.

I love it when 2 already really good cards work so well together.

Great, great card. I normally play in two headed giant format, and now that I've played him a couple of times he's got a gigantic mark on his head. It's nowhere close to forgotten in my book.

This card works great in 1-on-1 matches, also, even if not quite as well. With the right deck, you can be playing all of the spells. With bounce decks you'll be playing the same spells over and over, giving him counters every time. One of the best cards out there, in my opinion.

Just used this in a little game and this card is 10x better when enchanted with a couple Primal Cocoon. Was able to power up all my weak, vulnerable creatures including Protean Hydra very early on. Total domination.

Joraga Warcaller, in case that card didn't have a million other combos to make any elf deck beast.
