A turn-three 3/3 that naturally becomes 4/4 fits land-heavy green curves, but Badgermole Cub's cheaper rate is a stronger baseline.

Could be wrong if Landfall's curve or new green support could make a simple oversized body more desirable than expected.

Three mana for a removal-vulnerable, non-evasive 3/3 to 5/5 is too slow for Pioneer; it compares poorly to efficient threats such as Emberheart Challenger.

Could be wrong if A dedicated green lands shell could want a large, reliable creature despite its lack of immediate value.

It has no ETB value, evasion, or combo utility and only starts as a 3/3, well below Modern's usual three-mana creature payoff.

Could be wrong if An emerging land-centric deck could make its scaling body a low-cost complementary threat.

A three-mana creature with no immediate effect is exceptionally inefficient in Legacy, where cheap interaction makes a growing vanilla body unreliable.

Could be wrong if A specialized lands strategy could value a threat whose size ignores graveyard hate and remains naturally large.

Land-heavy decks can make it large, but a vanilla attacker without evasion, cards, mana, or landfall triggers is readily replaceable in multiplayer.

Could be wrong if A commander that specifically rewards very high creature power could provide a stronger home than revealed context shows.

It is a reliable 3/3 on turn three that grows into a 4/4 and 5/5 with normal land drops, giving green a strong early board presence.

Could be wrong if Unknown speed, removal, and creature sizing may make its non-evasive body easier to trade with or race than expected.
