Shouldn't it have had deathtouch if it's all covered with nettles?

Same as the huge bulk of mtg cards: playable in limited, crappy in constructed.

As with many green creatures in Innistrad block, I'm not really sure how this guy fits into the flavor of the setting. We've got gothic horror, angels and demons, and... a random giant pig. Why?

dr_murk, I was just going to say that. This reminded me of Okkoto instantly.

Often times "gothic horror" can be used to describe far more than just Dracula and Frankenstein style horror. The idea of an animal like a pig, some lowly farm animal growing to an immense size and going berserk could be described as Gothic, finding horror within something you see so often you'd expect to be used to it. I know i'd be scared if some giant pig that eats houses turned those creepy pervy giant pig eyes on me!

And I always thought Primalcrux was Okkoto.

A necessity to magic, yet never played by people with more then 100 green cards.

At least it's not a Hill Giant.

I hope your creatures were vaccinated, because they're about to get swine flu.

5/5 for looking like Princess Mononoke pig.
0/5 for being useless vanilla creature besmirching one of my favorite sets.

The Three-Little-Pigs reference in the flavor text is masterful.

Also strong in limited, as it's a more-powerful Hill Giant (and easily splashed). Don't underestimate it.

That is a lot of pork to try to carve up.
