This reprint includes the crucial "Beast" subtype on the token.

@Da Lucaray: Not "defy", but "deify"--Mirri's referring to how humans (and probably several other sapient races) tend to regard nature as a gestalt goddess, and somehow assume "female divinity" MUST signify "gentle and placid". (Inanna, Sekhmet, Morrigan, Athena...I'm sure I can find others in due time...)

So, the Prossh deck comes with this, Fecundity, and Primal Vigor...

This absolutely wrecks with Purphoros.

@Ferlord - I have won multiple games in my playgroup with the stock decks when I Tooth and Claw + Primal Vigor + x. Add to the list Deathbringer Thoctar, Stalking Vengeance and to a lesser extent the new Ophiomancer and Foster. Jund definitely has the best synergy of the 2013 commander decks. This is probably the most underestimated card in the deck; I know I certainly did.

Not sure exactly what's going on in the flavor text (since when does being female defy nature? And isn't that a pretty good reason to cringe at what is natural?) but that's pretty gnarly card.

EDIT: Thank you SkyKnight, makes sense now
