Odd combination of abilities, but his first ability I like a lot since it stops all non-creature creature removal making him harder to get rid of than he appears at first. A type of hex proof that stops mass removal.
However the mana production only seems to work for abilities and playing creatures. What abilities are there amongst the grul that need lots of Mana? Ideas?
If the translation is correct she only stops YOU from casting non-creature spells. Not your opponent.
Nice catch I read that wrong... definitely makes the card appear less useful then.
Who would be a better commander for an all-creatures Gruul EDH deck, her or Ruric Thar?
I was going to say a RG all-creature with morph subtheme to replace the noncreature spells. It could work.

Personally, I don't think there are enough good Morph creatures in RG to make that a viable theme, but that's just me. I'd rather use ETB creatures and stuff like Temur Sabertooth or Stampeding Wildebeests to replace noncreatures, myself.

Nothing says you can't incorporate both ideas. That gives me another idea in building it too.
Ehh? I was really hoping that the Gruul legend from this set would be interesting and and have nice playability (by my personal standards) so that I could build a Grull guild EDH deck.
Well at least I have no reason not to build that Grand Warlord mana battery deck now

Interesting Morph Idea.
Fortunately for her, there are a lot of good creatures that can somewhat act as the spells we would be leaving out for this build.

Points for referencing Stampeding Wildebeests.
