Creature - Lizard (mythic rare)
Trample
Whenever ~ enters the battlefield or attacks, you get E for each creature you control.
Pay E: ~ gets +1/+1 until end of turn. Its frill inspired the design of efficient aether collectors.
7/7
More E for my EDH deck, yay!
edit: For a mythic I would have liked a pump for all creatures at a higher E-cost. I don't feel like we have enough of those.
The pump is quite powerful with even a small board presence. Would have been nice to see it as a 3/3 for 3. The cost makes it hard to play and the pump is less relevant on the already large body. I like the art a lot though.
An excellent curve-topper in a token-based deck. By the time it attacks, you have collected EE for every creature you control so even with only 6 other creatures (its etb and upon-attack abilities count itself) this presents a lethal attack if not blocked.
Wow. This feels like it could deliver a disgusting punch to the face. Given it doesn't have haste and kind of wants a couple friends around, how viable do you think it could be in standard?

The rogue elephant 2.0 and this guy are gonna be played alongside attune. I hope they make mana dorks, at least 1 green "à la" Llanowar Elves.
Overall I like it.

11:15, restate my assumptions: 1. Mathematics is the language of nature. 2. Everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers. 3. If you graph these numbers, patterns emerge. Therefore: There are patterns everywhere in nature. - Maximillian Cohen.

EnergyDH has an awesome ring to it. I hope they give you a legendary creature that helps make energy counters for you.

I like big lizards, so this is nothing but fun timmy fun times. a solid A

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.
This seems like a pretty decent beater in the right deck. I do not believe it has a place in Aetherwork Marvel though. That deck doesn't want to spend the energy and doesn't have the creature support to make this generate a worthwhile amount of energy.
Lizards use neck frills to appear bigger than they actually are. So is the flavor behind this guy that he only appears to be bigger when you pump him, scaring your opponent into losing more life than they actually should? ... Am I grasping for straws here?
I think the flavor is supposed to tell us the frill isn't for show. Instead, its a big energy collector. Think solar sails that ancient lizards ostensibly used to collect heat. I think it actually consumes the energy to get bigger.

Or even a lethal attack even if it is blocked, assuming you have enough energy. It does have trample, after all. I think this might be the only card that lets you convert energy to damage to the face on a 1:1 basis without restriction.

Stay reasonable, be mindful of your expectations and don't feed the trolls.

Don't get me wrong though, I am happy to see a variety of mythic creatures (I even prefer tree folk) I'm just surprised.
