[card]Gigargon[/card]
I'm not sure what to think of this guy. He's double breaker and has 9000 power but costs 8. I think he could come in handy, but could also be practically useless. He seems to be getting outclassed and does not seem like he could be brought out easily unless using a mana ramp deck. So what do you think?

He seems to more or less be the Brave Giant of the Darkness civilization. High power, but he's an 8 cost vanilla, so I wouldn't use him more than likely.

I would say that he probably has his moments. Although Death Liger is way better. The main reason is civilzation. Chimeras have a lot of evolutions and a lot of lower cost ones to evolve. So in a chimera deck I doubt I'd pick that card, at least with current support. Shadow Champions (which Death Liger belongs to) have so much better support. The two that come to mind are Kronkos, General of Fear and Diabrost, Shadow Marshal. A Death Liger with a Kronkos, General of Fear and some weak fodder will be pretty hard to kill. Very few blockers and even few other creatures can match it's power and with Kronkos most spells won't work.
Still, I believe Gigargon is tied for second strongest Darkness creature in the game, behind Tekamora the Wretched (a chimera evolution). Consider he is a rare and much cheaper $ wise than Death Liger, I could see him being used in certain decks for brute force. Although I doubt he would be a 3 of card, maybe a 1 of in a Water/Darkness deck so you could search him with crystal memory or something. Still, in most decks I see him being a placeholder until you get an upgrade, whether it is the 1 cost lower version (Death Liger) or something with more of an effect.
