I love, love, love the quote in this guy's
flavor text. I feel, though, that he's largely
going to be passed over for constructed (which I
suspect is mainly because of preconceptions
about the exalted mechanic; seriously, when is
the last time you saw a 4/4 trample creature for
four mana with no disadvantages?). Alara draft
decks based around the exalted mechanic can
sometimes lack evasive abilities and thus be
vulnerable to tokens and other throwaway
blockers, which the Charger completely
invalidates.
It's too bad that Alara and Time Spiral weren't
released adjacent to each other, because now a
lot of people won't notice the synergy between
this card and Stonebrow, Krosan Hero. That's a
lot of trample damage!

This one is a better option for constructed than
yesterdays card. For an investment of 4 you get
a 3/3 body with trample. Add on the exalted and
you have something. Very similar decks that
would play yesterdays card in limited will play
this card. However, this one is actually
potentially a constructed card as well in a
block deck as the 3/3 body makes it reasonably
safe vs. most burn out there.

Constructed:
This a great little Rhino that should see some
play in greens Exalted decks. If someone decide
to make one. If only there was so much simple
removal in these formats.
Casual:
It's Trample can get real big with other Exalted
critters in play.
Limited:
Good solid green creature. When need some good
creatures for your deck this is a good one to
pick. A 4/4 Trampler is something to deal with
that only cost 4 to play. Pick several of the
Court Archers and maybe a few Resounding Roars
and you are good to go.
Overall a good uncommon with 2 nice abilities.
Constucted: 3

Again, not very good in constructed, but very
nice in limited. It is a very nice card for Bant
as it stops your opponent from simply chumping
block all day. Even by itself it is a
respectable attacker, a 4/4 for 4 with trample
and the easy splash cost is nice as well. I
would never been unhappy about taking the
Charger when I'm on-colour with it.
