A quick green fattie,
his one "drawback" really isn't a one for green.
If you're playing fat, you probably have some
acceleration creatures on the board already, so
you could easily have a 5/5 down turn 3 and
swinging turn 4. Very nice for quick green beats.
In limited, also a
nice addition as removal is fewer an farther
between, and mass removal even harder to find. The
Croc will rule the 5 seas. Anytime you have the
chance to play a 5/5 in limited, you do, as it's
hard to stop, and there is very little that can
touch a 5 toughness creature before it beats your
opponent to death. Nice.

Emperor Crocodile
And now, a great,
undercosted green creature that you have to
sacrifice if it is the only creature you
control. It is green, though, so you will very
rarely have this be your only creature, an you
should have Birds and other creatures out with
this. Fortunately for the base set, but
unfortunately for getting him through your
opponent's defenses, he doesn't have trample or
any other evasion, though, so he'll be locked
down in battle with anything that wants to chump
him.

Not a bad card. 4 mana for a 5/5, with a draw back
that is easy to overcome. If your deck usually has
at least a few creatures out all the time,
which most green decks do, then your fine to
include this bad boy in the
deck. The only way usually that you wont have any
other creature out is
after a mass removal spell was played. In that
case:
A) He was in play, and is dead now
B) He is in your hand, you'll have to wait
