Shouldn't the Oracle text for this read "S: Karplusan Giant gets +1/+1 until end of turn." ? Just being nitpicky, I guess.

Actually there's a minor difference since the (S)-cost would include mana drawn from from any Snow permanents, not just lands. (Like Boreal Druid for example.) Although i'm pretty sure if the card was worded like that it would still be far from broken.

He's sad because the guy he's holding just told him that he's unplayable :(.

Shade ability good. Shade ability limited to only mana from lands still good. Shade ability limited to only snow mana still fine if you're running a snow deck. 3/3 for 7? Garbage. Why not get a nice cheap shade and just pay a little more to pump it? Granted, red doesn't many shades.

@flavor text Yes, they sure aren't the quickest of giants!
They are lazy, you have to pay them a lot to convince them to follow you!
For it would be a nice red snow shade, but for I'd rather play Trained Orgg!

Oh this poor, poor giant! No wonder he looks so glum!
How's about this:
Karplusan Giant {6}{R} Snow Creature - Giant "You may choose to not untap snow lands you control during your untap step." "Karplusan Giant gets +1/+1 for each tapped snow land you control." 3/3
