What will his average P/T be when he's played? I'm not sure how to cost this.
Heehee. Wacky ability. My instinct is that this is undercosted - I think on turn 4 he's likely to be at least 6/6 even in a duel - but counteracting that is that the opponent has an obvious thing to do to shrink him, and late-game he'll likely be very small.
For what it's worth, I costed Kena by saying "It may end up getting really big but it has no evasion so that hardly matters much."
CMC 6... yeah, in single player it'll probably be 2-4 during your turns. In multiplayer it will be huge; but they'll have more options for dealing with it. Seems fine to me.
