Hopefully, this isn't too strong or too weak. Theidea was to hit the fantasy trope of a stone/earth/mountain giant who has been asleep for so long that it is belived to be merely a natural formation. Those who know better though can wake the giant, though only temporarily. Is the cost to ignore the attack/block restriction too high? (I didn't want this to be able to swing before turn 4 or 5 as you wouldn't normally have a 4/4 before then) though maybe it could be as you would still need it & 3 other lands to attack. The only Issue I can see with this at the moment is using it with Fling as you can tap it to help pay the cost and then fling it - though it would leave you down a land.
Good idea. The problem with many auto-man lands is that they are vulnerable. He's still destroyable with a Doom Blade, but at least a round 1 Lightning Bolt didn't take him out. And the flavor of a land creature resonates well here, despite the fact that this could have easily said "RRRR: ~ becomes a 4/4..."
