This card is as hard to love as the boar-ish
face that adorns it. In limited, this card is
just fine, giving you a creature that can
seriously mess with your opponent's head. If
they have a lot of untapped permanents on their
side, your Piggy is GIGANTIC, if they want to
tap some land and possibly risk mana burn, they
can adjust the size of your Vorrac. This card
was USUALLY good enough to play in limited, just
don't mistake the Vorrac for a BOMB, because
he's not THAT good. The obvious problem with
this card is that it lets your opponent have a
lot to say about how good it is. As problematic
as Vorrac's ability is, it is his casting cost
that really sinks him from contention as a
constructed deck entry. In constructed, you
don't run a five casting cost creature without
getting something very close to a win condition
on your side of the board. Copperhoof Vorrac
just doesn't qualify.
This card seems like it could be good, but it's
all an illusion. You can't control your
opponent's permanents that well. And there are a
lot of ways that they can tap them. So, more
often than not, your best is just going to be an
overcosted 2/2.
Constructed: 1
Casual: 1.5
Limited: 1.5

An interesting card, at least. While it would
never be seen in the tournament realm, it is
something kind of fun to watch in limited games.
If you're opponent is willing to take a bit of
burn, they can sometimes tap mana just to kill
it in some cases.
