Johtull Wurm

A 6/6 for six in green is plain by every modern standard, but the drawback clause is the interesting fossil here: this is gang-blocking expressed as a creature mechanic rather than a combat rule. The wurm shrugs off a lone blocker but wilts when swarmed, shrinking by -2/-1 for every blocker past the first. The math is brutal in the defender's favor: two blockers drop it to a 4/5, three make it a 2/4, and four reduce it to a 0/3 that dies if anything connects. That inversion is the design point. Where most big green creatures want to be answered with a wall of small bodies (trampling over or simply trading up), this one folds to exactly that line, turning the usual green-fattie logic on its head. It reads less like a beater and more like a cautionary tale about early Ice Age power-budgeting, where designers were still pricing raw stats as a liability that needed paying down with text. The era's instinct was to attach a real cost to a 6/6, and the cost they chose was the most common combat decision an opponent makes. What you end up with is a creature genuinely good only against a single blocker and genuinely bad against a developed board: a strange axis to build a six-drop around, and proof of how cautiously green's curve-toppers were once handled.
