Creature — Elemental Horror4 generic manaGreen manaGreen mana

A 7/7 with no text is green stating its terms plainly: this is the size the color will sell at a discount, and the rest is the buyer's problem. The number that does the work is the toughness. A 7 sits above every common burn spell, every two-power trampler, every X/4 blocker that would happily trade up into a smaller body, which makes the creature a wall that nothing in the same mana range climbs over by force. What it surrenders for that bulk is the entire rest of the card. No trample means a lone chump blocker buys a full turn; no evasion means a flier strolls past it; no protection means a single exile or edict erases all six mana with one card. That trade is the bargain on offer: maximum stats, zero text, sold cheap on the understanding that a creature this blank lives and dies by the board around it rather than anything it generates itself. It fills the top of a curve when a deck needs a body and nothing more, the floor a ramp shell reaches for when its real payoffs are stuck in the library. Unglamorous and exactly as good as the line promises, which in green is a steeper bar than the absence of keywords lets on.
