One of the rare green cards with haste. You don't see that much often.

Wow, this is actually pretty solid in Threshold token decks. A green 3/3 with haste is a pretty rare sight, but when you're in Threshold, he's a 4/4 creature with Haste & Trample - not to think about to the rest of your army's gonna look like >_> .. Man, this is a beater

excellent in a tokens deck (provided you have some reliable way of hitting threshold early)

More green creatures with haste then you think. Hybrid creatures count as both their colors, and can be played with one color, so all the red/green hybrids count. It's the Threshold ability that makes this Centaur shine.

Touch of Vitae isn't bad... It's Instill Energy and 2 for 1 draw in a 3 cost. It's not the greatest thing ever, but you can't Naturalize it like you can Instill Energy, and it's green draw.

Anyway, VERY solid green card AS ALONG AS you have a way of throwing things in your graveyard. Dredge definitely isn't based in green... Or graveyard recurrence in case you accidentally toss this poor guy in there while dredging. Good for a casual dredge/aggro.

green is actually the color that has the 3rd most haste creatures. And that's only because black has unearth.

Not bad at all, one of my favorite threshold cards. 4.5/5

A nice finisher in threshold based decks.

Similar design-wise to Kavu Titan, you can play him early for a vanilla 3/3 haste hitter which green doesn't get often, or wait for threshold and give all your creatures a mini Overrun

4/5

This seems great with Vengevine.

It's good and flavorful with Stonebrow, Krosan Hero if you have the threshold (assuming not all of the creatures you control have trample already)

Green haste is weird, and unless you play it with Threshold it's over-costed for what it is.

With Threshold, though, it can find a home pretty easily.

My first deck idea ever was to run creatures that had "Cannot be target of spells or abilities" with Overrun adn this guy.

Worked incredibly well, Nimble Mongoose was a beast even back then!
