Gristleback, Creature — boar beast, designed by Lars Grant-West first released in Feb, 2006 in the set Guildpact.
Gristleback would be a great addition to a green-based aggressive deck that focuses on dealing damage early on to trigger its Bloodthirst ability and quickly boost its power. Its ability to sacrifice and gain life can also provide a valuable source of lifegain in a pinch. While Gristleback is a solid card for its cost, there may be better options depending on the specific strategy of the deck, such as Strangleroot Geist for a more aggressive approach or Thragtusk for a more midrange strategy. Overall, Gristleback could see play in the right deck, especially one looking to apply early pressure and gain life simultaneously.
