5 stars just because I love the artwork. You gotta love this fat baldy carrying a sack and a club, maybe Giant Farmer would be more appropriate. For gameplay it is probably like one of the worst cards you can play unless you're playing a Giant deck. And then still there are better Giants out there. Oh yes and it can be removed fairly easily (lightning bolt, terror, etc). Personally I own about 12 copies of this card and I want more!

A good old standby from the earliest days of the game. A vanilla creature without a really low casting cost is probably useless in tournament play, but if you're a rookie playing a casual game there's a certain thrill that comes from plopping this guy down and going on the offensive. Plus it's got one of the most memorable pieces of flavor text in the game.
