Rukh Egg likes equipment. Slap a loxodon warhammer on it and keep attacking with a 3/3 trampler with lifelink. If they kill it, you can equip the token with the hammer instead, and swing with a 7/4 trampler with flying and lifelink. :)

The first errata'd card...too bad as Foolish Burial would have been great with it.

An entertaining card that sort of acted as a wall that produced a big flyer when it died. Strange how the egg can attack...

I'd like to see a modern cycle of these, actually. Having a pseudo-wall that only gets better when you kill it sounds like fun.

I like the "as you know"-attitude in this card's descríption:
"If Rukh Egg goes to the graveyard, a Rukh — you know... that 4/4 red flying creature, remember? — comes into play on your side (...)"
They write it as if it was some kind of known fact from an everyday fairy tale, or a commonly known term that they just have to casually remind people of in between another sentence. (Like "bear" is used to refer to a 2/2 creature for example.)

At one time this was the most valuable common card printed! Neat.

Funny how even the rulings talk about a Rukh hatching from the egg. But in the 'One thousand and one nights' the story goes that when humans destroy the egg, the motherbird shows up and attacks them. That also explains why the bird is so big, as it is not a newly hatched bird, but an adult one.
