Big Fat Fatty w/ Trample
4GGGG
Sorcery
Put an 8/8 Fatty token w/ trample into play.
Rebound (If you cast this spell from your hand, exile it as it resolves. At the beginning of your next upkeep, you may cast this card from exile without paying its mana cost.)
And it will by Mythic.
Agreed. Especially on the mythic part. I can definitely see WotC printing this.
Hmmm not really my department in MTG but eh what the heck:

Trample
You may sacrifice a land instead of paying ~ mana cost.
Leveler 5 (By paying 5 mana of any color, ~ gets +5/+5. This effect doesn't end at the end of the turn)
3/3
Yes, exactly like the hunted cycle, except for free this time instead of 3-5 mana. I'm not totally sure if 6 1/1s is enough in exchange for an 8/8 trampler, though. It might have to be more considering you could drop it turn 1.

I could totally see it being something like this, but I think it's more likely it will be rare, not mythic unless it were an instant then I could justify it being a mythic.
My first thought is cost reduction when certain condition is met (Trap or Avatar of Hope).
Avatar of Eldrazi3GGG
Creature - Avatar
If an opponent controls an Eldrazi Creature, Avatar of Eldrazi costs 3GGG less to cast.
Trample
8/8
Second thought is alternative cost to cast it for free with huge drawback.
Eldrazi Opposition3GGG
Creature - Elemental
If you control a Forest, you may pay 0 rather than pay CARDNAME's mana cost.
When Eldrazi Opposition enters the battlefield, if no mana was spent to cast it, discard your hand, then sacrifice all permanent. Each opponent may search his or her library for a card and put it into his or her hand. Then each player who searched his or her library this way shuffles it.
Trample
8/8
Third one is play for free because it is a land with Leveler mechanic.

This guy, would either eat up several turns worth of mana to get a slow permanent that relies on your already have some board presence (after wasting said mana), or dies without generating any advantage.
Some of them come up with such innovative and balanced card ideas I sometimes wonder if they're really Maro in disguise. Some of them make it so I don't have to worry
Free Fatty 4GGG
If you have 7 or more forests in play, you may play free fatty without paying its mana cost.
Trample
8/8
Seems like a very believable possibility
That or the "rebound fatty token" really seem like two of the best guesses
All of his "awesome sounding clues" every set turn out to be unplayble ☺☺☺☺ty jank. It's old now.
Agreed. Like how Nemesis Trap was a BB spell that kills two Baneslayers. Rosewater would advertise Bull Rush as Shock that deals with Shroud. Entertaining, but 99% of the time: disappointing.

Put an 8/8 green elemental creature token into play with trample.
THAT is obviously the most balanced card and WOTC should have thought of it sooner. It's about as balanced as my idea that obviously nothing game breaking about it. [/sarcasm]
To be honest I think it might be a trap that has a trigger that responds to high mana costs being payed (lets say only colorless mana was spent as the trigger) for a single creature spell that costs more than 8 that gives us a 8/8 Green Trampler for 0.

QFT.
As soon as I found out it was a Maro "spoiler", I dismissed the card as worthelss. Premature maybe. But I'm totally sick of his games. It's been a week since we got thrown a bone with those six cards, and this is what follows. Do me a favour.
Maro just posted an interesting tidbit to his twitter account: "A little something you might open in your ROE Booster: An 8/8 green trampler that you can play for free."
That creature seems to be at odds with RoE's huge creature -- huge cost theme. Another free mechanic?! We're just about to recover from the last one they dropped on us. Discuss!
I wonder if it comes into play under your opponent's control.

I'll be sad if people don't start calling The Chain Veil "Fleetwood Mac."
I don't know why Maro wastes our time with crap like this.
The card is going to suck - really, it's going to suck big time.
They design these cards that only a super-Johnny would touch and then bill them like they're going to be the best thing since sliced bread. "Oh!!! A FREE 8/8 trampler!!!" - It's not like they made an effort to create an actual playable card out of this thing.
It's going to be an 8/8 trample that you have to sacrifice all lands you control and discard your hand to put into play. (Or some equivalent level of suck)
It will exist only to bait poor players into throwing away all their resources on turn 2 so that their 8/8 trampler can be killed with a doom blade and then they will have nothing to do but lose.

Affinity for forests
Trample
8/8
most likely played as an 8/8 for 5 in monogreen, but you would have to cut oran-rief and other nonforests.
Terra Stomper is 8/8 trample for 3GGG. It could really be cheaper than that to give it a real incentive to play a ton of forests. It's not like you can stockpile them in a hurry like artifacts, so it'll just play as a really bad Terra Stomper at that cost (who's worth 50 cent because no one plays in now). 4GGG is probably fine. It's not like green can't cast Stomper on turn 4 anyway, without some stupid requirement like controlling 4 forests. Of course, convoke might work better, since it can reduce colored mana costs as well.

Or it could be a Trap card that have to be triggered from something.
