The art is pretty intense. If this was a strong card, I would probably like it a lot.

I've won games in two separate drafts with this guy. NO morph creature should be rated less than 1.0/5.0.

When I first saw this, I thought it said Sh*tting valesk.

Much more entertaining.

only application at all is with the cards that trigger when a creature you control is turned face up, but that morph cost is just way too expensive to trigger a ping effect etc

Most of you are reading this card wrong. It's not a 5/5 for 6Red with a drawback; it's a 2/2 for 3 with an overpriced pump ability. Just the fact that it has Morph makes it strictly better than Pearled Unicorn or Raging Bull, both of which are rated higher than this. It's bad, but it's not that bad.

So... I can either spend 6R for a 5/5 with a horrible drawback, or 3 and then 5R for the same trash... Yeah, no thanks!

Morph cards shouldn't be rated this low. They are, at worst, 2/2 for 3 colourless.

I actually have a copy of this in an erratic explosion deck I'm trying to build. He is one of the weakest cards there, but I haven't found a suitabe replacement yet. I've obviously never played him for his CC or his flip cost, only for the baseline 3.

Aw, it's shy. It must be self-conscious about how *** awful it is and doing us a favor by hiding away out of sight. At least you're not Chimney Imp, Valesk.

Much better than Raging Bull.

So it's a 5/5 for 6Red with... a drawback?

Wait what?

The reason this guy is rated worse than 2/2 for 3 creatures is because all of that text and his 5/5 body gives you hope that he might be good, but then you realize the text is just a drawback on a creature that was already overpriced for its power.
