This is the biggest creature of all time in terms of p/t. Excluding Marit Lage, which is a token, not even Emrakul is as big as this dude. He’s a 16/16 while Emrakul is a puny 15/15. Plus he’s indestructible.
Also, Vraska's Contempt, Seal Away, Settle the Wreckage, and Ixalan's Binding to add onto TezzeretofCarmot21's list. If it really became busted, you could even play Blazing Hope, which would be hilarious
This card is terrible. Here's a list of reasons why:
-It costs 10 mana. Yes, convoke can allow you to play it quicker, but you're risking a lot to play it, because...
-...it dies to (basically) everything. Look, you were never going to kill a 16/16 with damage regardless of indestructibility. There are multiple easy ways to deal with this. Remember that terrible card blazing hope? Chances are, against the Go-wide creature deck the wurm desires to be good, your lifetotal will be lower than 16. Basically PTE in standard. Sure, Murder and Ravenous Chupacabra won't be a good answer, but those cards are boring and dumb anyway. #Reprint Hero's Downfall.
-It has no evasion. You can chump this thing forever. Slimefoot is basically a 4-mana fog for this every turn.
-Ghalta is just better. Although Ghalta is smaller than this, the evasion, relevant creature type and the ability to not tap your creatures to play it makes Ghalta a superior option for most decks.
I'm not saying there's no chance for this to see play (Thud exists after all), just remember that a big thing with indestructible isn't necessarily good. So no, @strongbelieves, this is probably not going to be Buh buh buh busted...
@TezzeretofCarmot21 Thank you
