How big do you want your ooze? 10/10? 15/15? How soon do you want this jumbo sized ooze? Turn two? Turn three? It can happen in an elf deck. Churn out those big fat jumbo sized oozes in no time whatsosever! If we get good populate cards this card will be nuts!
I'm not sure why people would doubt it's playability, XG cost creatures like Feral Hydra, Ivy Elemental, Protean Hydra etc. have always been a decent (and rare) pick in limited. Paying 1 more mana than the power a toughness is decent in limited and the ability to have a drop which scales perfectly is great. It may lack the extra ability of a Hydra but being a Token (while making it more vulnerable to bounce) makes it work great with one of the sets major mechanics (populate). I would be very surprised if this wasn't a relatively high draft pick, especially for anyone wanting to draft Selesnya.

Chimeric Mass was better.
Still, it's a good uncommon, because it's always a creature that will dominate the board, unless you missed some land-drops. In limited, of course. If they aren't evasive, of course.

Don't ask me whether or not I can read thoughts. Ask me, are there thoughts worth to read?
This is almost a functional reprint of Ivy Elemental (which was a rare). Except that it's more vulnerable to bounce effects, but does interact much better with token strategies, which is probably the bigger issue in this set.
I would really appreciated it if it came into play with counters like the elementaö, so Golgari could abuse it too, for example with corpsejack menace.

And then it's useless for populate. Populating 0/0s is good value.
Is this what we can consider a green fireball? Haha. When i see this card, all i think is that old nickolodeon show, "Figure it out"

I fear I won't have much time to play Magic these days.
I get to watch worlds develop around me.
I get to watch great leaders, terrible oppressors, and trend setters rise and fall.
Limited, Standard, Modern, everything is a different playing field I feel I can observe, but will not actually touch.
I look forward to the stories I will hear.
And more so to the ones I will watch unfold first hand.
Isn't the unknown exciting?
Wouldn't take over good removal or a bomb rare, but easily better p1p1 than an efficient / evasive dude.
ABSOLUTELY. At a 4-6 mana investment, all the populate cards become VERY good...
This is a bomb rare in limited. There are better options of course, but this thing can be absolutely nuts, especially in slow games.
Cool more oozes! I like that its a sorcery and not a creature, so izzet splash green can maybe care a little bit lololol
This is the type of thing I'm surprised wasn't a card already, and so I'm glad they made it. Outside of that though I don't really care very much.
Bye ooze, cya in draft sometime!

The true mind can weather all the lies and illusions without being lost. The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being harmed. Since beginning-less time, darkness thrives in the void but always yields to purifying light.
I invision a future where one is not mighty when he can silence a crowd with brutality,
but when he leaves them speechless with wisdom.
Looking at past examples, I don't think the English name would have slime in it. If I had to guess, it would be a one-word name ending with -morphose (c.f. Manamorphose).

I'd expect something along the lines of Slimecrafting or Oozecrafting. Best case scenario is Oozeomancy or Goopomancy. I would enjoy casting a card called Goopomancy. I wouldn't be surprised though if the translation is accurate.
Could the name be translated into English as Laspomancy? That would mean "shaping/forming/divination of ooze/slime."

Exactly the same as whatever 1-mana creature you play.

This and Trostani could be hilarious especially if you have mana ramp. Torstani T3, 4/4 Slime T4 and gain 4 life and 4 board power for 3 from T5 on.

That's what I was thinking. Who needs evasion when you have an army of 4/4 creatures? Heh
Also it's never really a bad top deck since you can pour into it as much mana as you want at any given time.

and odds are since this is a multicolor set, decks will on average be slower. you can probably get a 5/5 at the least from this.
There was Wurmcalling but that had buyback.
