Reviews
Seven mana might be a lot to spend, but Stone-Giant of High Pass is well worth that investment. If you get to untap with it in play and attack, you'll have created two Stone Boulder , giving you fuel to hit two targets for 4 damage each, which is exceptionally powerful. Even if you don't get that far, at least it gave you one of those Stone Boulders when it entered as a down payment. This is expensive, but a very powerful rare that will be hard to deal with effectively.
Stone-Giant of High Pass is insanely busted, provided you can untap with it. Dori, Bearer of Friends and Burn, Burn, Tree and Fern are nice ways to get to 7 sooner. In super long games, you could try waiting until 10 mana to make sure you get immediate value.
