I'd be happy to fill out my curve with this in limited if I pulled an Immerwolf or two.

Shame that it isn't a Vampire Wolf, as at least then it would have had some interesting multi-tribal ability hidden away in a vanilla package.

I don't mind that they keep printing underpowered cards. I mind that they keep reprinted underpowered, boring cards.

Hill giant. Yes, they still exist. They have existed for years now, and rightfully so. I think you guys can stop whining about them now. Whine about power creep, whine about an old staple, whine about bad rares, complain about fair commons. Seriously, an expected common reprint (with nice flavor) is really stupid to complain about.
That, and wolf is actually a legit tribe in ascension. More than Giant ever was, outside Lorwyn.

Playable in Limited, but still so very dull.

Personally, I really like the flavour, and the tribal assignment makes it a decent card in draft, where it's clearly intended to see play.
Perfectly fine by me. There's something elegant about simple cards that slot into your draft deck's colour/tribe/mana curve perfectly - like the door of an expensive car closing.

normally i'd just think "oh look, more vanilla yaaaaaaaaaaay"
then i noticed that these wolves could be running on the shoulder of a Hill Giant.
reference much?

That's right, it takes two of these losers to equal a single Wild Jhovall. Powercreep my ass!

At this point it's possible to make a deck consisting entirely out of Hill Giants and friends.

Why the heck is this card rated as only a 1.6?! Doesn't anybody see the value here? If you have four Immerwolves on the field, it becomes a 7/7 for 4 mana!! That's great in my Book! Almost as good as Rancor on my Fog Bank

I mean, I dunno: Hill Giant in limited WASN'T useless. It was 6-12 pick for red, since big red creatures are scarce. Give it a creature type that's viable in this set (WINK WINK IMMERWOLF COUGH SNORT WINK NUDGE NUDGE) or block (COUGH COUGH BLERGH MOONMIST PFT RRRR WINK) and you MAY have a decent time playing this.
Personally, it's not deserving of its 1.5 star rating. maybe 2 to 2.5.
