I hope we get a new insult every core set. Even though the card is mediocre at best.

"Old, immobile clod"? Got that right. Really though, I can tolerate a new print of this every year if there's a new rant on it each time.

Bruse... just let it go, man. I know you lost your house, but you can't keep blaming it on the Ox.

Haha yeah. Make him a really powerful mythic too, so that we will always wonder how a measly ox managed to piss him off.

This and siege mastodon carried me to a sealed pool win.

Still this card gets a .5/5 for being vanilla filler crap.

Next, on the DeVanilla project, where we take overcosted vanilla cards, and inspire them with unique mechanics.

For Pillarfield Ox, I'd give:
Whenever Pillarfield Ox attacks, if it's equipped, you may untap target Plains and gain one life.

I just noticed that "pillar box" is the British word for mailbox. Coincidence? Probably not.

I really hope this keeps getting reprinted with more elaborate curses until there's literally no more room left in the text box.

Good to see them reprinting more modern staples.

Just what I needed! More Pillarfield Oxen! Mostly just useful for the sound they make in your bicycle spokes.

At any time, you may tap a plains and gain 1 life.
All Ox get +2/+0, trample, and attack each turn they are able.

Bruse Tarl - 4W
Legendary Human Herdsman (Rare)

When Bruse Tarl enters the battlefield, put two white 2/4 ox tokens onto the battlefield.

Ox you control gain Defender.

1/1

...I just like the idea of oxen deliberately screwing with him by refusing to move.
