by Link:

For Challenge # 004.

by Link:

I wanted this to be Graft 3, but I also wanted it to cost 2.

by Alex:

Currently rather worse than Aquastrand Spider. Couldn't it just cost {1} {g} ?

How's this?

by Alex:

I would have used to say "too good", but then they printed Garruk's Companion, so probably just about okay.

by jmgariepy:

Very Strong. We're pushing in on Watchwolf's territory, but I think I'd fight for this card. He also passes the Litmus test of "I would play this creature with this Planeswalker".

by jmgariepy:

Actually, if I was in the pit, I think I'd push to make him a 0/1 and give him Graft 2. It would still be stronger than a lot of other cards at common for {g} {g} .

by Link:

You know, I do like that idea. It would be nice to have one Graft creature that's not 0/0.
