The one thing I thought M13 was missing was Siege Mastodon.
And now you've printed it along side Pillarfield Ox? Christmas DOES come early!

Way too similar to Pillarfield Ox and not nearly as fun.

Five mana vanilla 3/5s can do good work in Limited if you didn't get a pool full of broken rares.

Next, on the DeVanilla project, where we take overcosted vanilla cards, and inspire them with unique mechanics.
For Siege Mastodon, I'd give: As long as Siege Mastodon is untapped, other untapped creatures you control have +0/+2. As long as Siege Mastodon attacks, other attacking creatures you control have first strike.
And what's with that art? It looks like a 4-year old tried to draw an elephant.

Believe it or not I ran FOUR of these guys in an 8-4 draft last night (on MTGO) and took first place. I was going U/B, then opened Ajani in pack 3, so decided to drop black and go into white. Took every playable white card I could find in pack 3, which included 4 of these guys. Deck was Windreader Sphinx, Ajani, a bunch of flyers, and 4 of these bad boys. They did a good job, definitely playable in limited.
@DrJack Look closer. The art is actually amazing. That is armor on the giant elephant holding its ears back. The tusks are sawed off so it can act as a battering ram without a tusk breaking in assorted messy ways. The skin on the elephant is lifelike and perfect. You do on the other hand have to look past the fact that this card exemplifies animal cruelty with the sawing off of the tusks and all the concussions and brain damage this poor beast would have. But... It's a fantasy setting, one must allow for this type of thing I guess since it's all just a fantasy.
