This is pretty good, really. It's Viashino Firstblade without white, in it's mana cost and ability. It has tribal advantages, and the loss of toughness on the effect doesn't seem like much of a disadvantage for more widespread playability.

not great. 4 damge on t3 is not to be sneezed at in limited though.
Minotaur looks to be going tribal in Theros though, so maybe better.

This card actually seems very good to me. It has that nice spike of damage when it enters but sticks around unlike Arc Runner.

In the early game he will be a Gray Ogre that comes into played taped and does 4 damage to your opponent. In the late game he might just be Gray Ogre, but can't be overlooked for his aggression.

Get an Ogre Battledriver to give this ability to all of your creatures.

Seems like a more permanent arc runner. i like it. 4 damage 2nd turn (assuming i draw my mystics) isnt bad.

This guy has won me more games than I can shake a skullcleaver at...
5/5 Stars
P.S. Draft monored in Theros limited, I've top 4ed four times with it, and almost always top 8

Not bad for limited, though I feel like it depends on the matchup. I've seen blowouts caused by this guy supported by just a couple other minotaurs and I've seen players get wrecked after casting him. Really quite solid if you are monored, BR or WR and are packing removal.
