For Challenge # 066.
Tricky. That first line of text isn't very Gruul. The second line of text reads very Gruul to me. A creature that turns my lands into creatures so I can attack with them? Gruul smash!
I like the flavour, and I think some mana ability might work quite well as a non-Gruul card. The trouble is, red green together wants to make temporary acceleration, but accelerating as opposed to fixing is inherently a bit gruul, because it gets you to your big creatures faster, rather than cast non-red-green spells.
Fascinating pair of abilities, anyway. I agree with jmg that the first is distinctly non-Gruul but the second isn't so clear.
Gruul might do the second ability, conceivably, but I think only Simic has done it so far, unless I'm missing something.
