This is a
very powerful and popular card, it has inspired
people to build decks around it and it has a
home in most control decks, this card is
awesome.
Civilisation:
This card is
from the Water Civilisation and it is a very
manipulative card, so it fits the theme of the
Water.
Cost/Power:
This card
costs 4 for 5000 power, a very good Cost to
Power ratio, but this creature can't attack so
that is a downfall.
Effects:
This card has
3 effects:
1:
Blocker
I am very
sure we all know what this does by now.
2: When you
put this creature into the battle zone, return a
card from your mana zone to your hand.
This effect
is what makes thrash crawler so powerful, the
ability to fetch a card from your mana zone is
amazing and this card got even more powerful
with the release of the Charger cards in set 8,
reusing a spell is a powerful effect, and this
card can hold it's own it battle.
3: This
creature can't attack.
This is
Thrash Crawlers Drawback, however you don't need
to attack to use the full potential of this
card.
Limited:
A blocker
that can get you back a situational card you may
need, take it, blockers are needed in this
format.
4/5
Constructed:
A powerful
control card in this format, infact it is rarely
not seen in a control deck nowadays. This card
has great synergy with chargers and has one of
the best effects in the game.
5/5 Perfect
Score.
