Had to cut the flavour text which explained that the creation of a Bone Colossus is rare as the final act of the creation ritual is the craeator's self-sacrifice, which imbues his creation with an evil intelligence and hatred of all life. :-)
Nice idea. Sadly waayyy overcosted; could be about 5 mana, I'd say. Sure, late-game it'll be gigantic, but late-game things are allowed to be.
Hmm... what are we assuming would be an average number of creatures that would end up in graveyards by turn 5? I mean, if you built your deck with this card in mind? Three creatures, making this a 6/6 Trampler for ? I want to compare this card to Lord of Extinction, but there are so many differences that I can't get a proper read...
It's more like a Lhurgoyf with base stats 3+*/3+* but which doesn't get bigger with new creatures. Or a Sutured Ghoul or Frankenstein's Monster that only gets one +1/+1 counter per creature card.
set cost at 6, lets see how that plays.
