I feel like the unupgraded Otyugh has too little a range of things it can eat. Many common decks played in PVP, AI, etc. don't involve creatures with that low HP, rendering an unupgraded Otyugh somewhat useless. Please vote for how you think Otyugh should be changed/not changed.

I feel like I should comment here, simply because I do agree that it needs a buffing. I remember on the old forums the suggestions were making its stats 0/4 and either increasing its casting cost by one, or the cost to devour by one (making it 2 :gravity). Just a thought. But yeah, Gravy's unupped game could always use buffs :V

That's the thing. The Otyugh by itself can't eat much. It requires some sort of buff for it to be capable of eating more stuff. I'm a poet and I didn't even know it.

Needs no bonus, he can start eating smaller creatures and then larger ones anyway, with 0 | 6 he can devour some dragons and this is very powerful! for a creature of 4 :gravity

Bump simply because I still agree with this.

And to Vangelios, there is 27 unupgraded nommable creatures with under 3 HP (not counting nymphs, SoFo) and I'm too lazy to count the number of upgraded creatures. However, three of those creatures are unnommable after their first turn out, three will poison the Oty, and one can burrow. Just throwing that out there.

I always just blessed it. Plus with an angel to heal the often abused Otyugh.

Nice to use upped but certainly not the best card ingame when it is unupped. +1 HP wouldn't hurt.

It seems to be overpowered for a single unuped creature able to control the field with out help.
(In case it start with 4hp, it is petty hard for a a deck to avoid any 3hps, thus you can control them without any help.)

And with help, an unuped Otyugh already controls the field (one blessing or armor, it start eating some dragons and most non-dragons).
You can see that many rainbows chose Otyugh as their control, they already got enough love.
