Great Nature's secondary Stride option is what Magmarmr is. When you've Stridden already, you CB1 and G Persona Blast to give two rear-guards 4k power and the ability to seal G1 or above guard from the hand. Oh, and a rarity for Great Nature; the units that power up DON'T die at the end of the turn.
 
I think it would have been more relevant (but probably more OP) if it sealed Grade 0 guard. I mean, it's not really providing me much incentive to change my overall guarding strategy for each column; I drop the PGs I can't use on the Vanguard, then use Grade 0s and intercept for the rest. That's something I would have done anyway for a normal Vanguard; I'm not likely to waste a PG on a rear-guard unless it's actually got a threatening skill.
 
I guess it's possible to dick an opponent over, but only if your field is arranged just so so that on-attack power givers can grant enough to a column to force more unnecessary guard out, but I wouldn't actively count on it.
 
It's not really that bad, but I'd rather take a more certain game-ender since it relies on a perfect field to function properly.
 
3/5

This, plus Silent Tom in Extreme Fight, is broken.  Good thing that Great Nature doesn't have any Silent Tom clones, because it makes all your rear guards Glory Maelstrom clones.
 
Best part is, it doesn't retire the unit that it pumps up.  Only downside is, well, no other on-hit pressure, though it is a nice way to end the game quickly.
 
Now if only there was a way to give rear-guards some on-hit pressure too...
