Even though there are cards that have made this guy obsolete, I still run him, for old time's sake.

A Joraga Treespeaker played on turn 1 is ready to produce 2 mana on turn 3, whereas this guy played on turn 3 just sits in his summoning sickness stupor, stuffed silly with the extra 2 mana you had to feed him.

"The ring was made in the fires of Mount Doom. Only there can it be unmade. The ring must be taken deep into Mordor and cast back into the fiery chasm from whence it came. One of you must do this. "

Nearly strictly worse than Joraga Treespeaker, but that card costs 1GreenGreen to play and activate while this one is just 2Green. Plus, this one can't be Pithing Needled, whereas the Treespeaker can be prevented from leveling up.

Still, Joraga Treespeaker is by far the better card, so I would always play it over this card.
