About Hamletback Goliath
Hamletback Goliath, Creature — giant warrior, designed by Paolo Parente & Brian Snõddy first released in May, 2020 in the set Resale Promos and was printed exactly in 8 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.41.
A deck that focuses on summoning multiple high-power creatures would benefit from using Hamletback Goliath, as it can quickly grow in size with each new creature entering the battlefield. However, there are better cards like Craterhoof Behemoth that provide a more immediate and powerful impact on the board. While Hamletback Goliath can be a fun and flavorful inclusion in casual decks, it may not see competitive play due to its high cost and slower growth potential compared to other options.
Rules

The value of X is determined as the ability begins resolving. If the other creature is no longer on the battlefield, its last known existence on the battlefield is checked to determine its power.
