Flavor text suspiciously reminiscent of my nineties Windows laptop.

Yup I agree with the others, this is one solid Hill Giant.
Not only does it have trample, if you have six mana to spare, you can double its stats.

This is going to be awesome in limited. Trample is 'aight with 3 power, but awesome at 6.

This card won me many a prerelease. Thank you Ill-Tempered Cyclops and the many auras I bestowed upon you.

I ended up with him being a 13/13 Trample, First Strike, Vigilance, Can't be blocked by two or more creatures monstrosity. Swinging in with that and then Divine Verdicting their blocker away.
Good times.

These comments need a couple things... a dude saying this is strictly better than Hill Giant, and another dude telling him he's strictly wrong.

@daLucray Well, no. A closer example would be a 6/6 trampler for 6 with a rather complicated effect involving Exiling a Hill Giant or paying an additional 4. Still a good card, but not quite as good as you think. Pretty sure a pure 6/6 Trampler for 6 is above curve even for Green.
