Woolly Thoctar is a 5/4 for three mana — one of the best rate creatures ever printed at that cost. The three-color requirement keeps it out of most decks, but in any shell that can pay it, the stats are simply correct.

Woolly Thoctar sees essentially no competitive play in Legacy, Modern, or Vintage — those formats move too fast for a vanilla beatstick that contributes nothing beyond its body. In Commander, the three-color mana cost (red, green, white) is less of a barrier than in other formats, but the card still offers no ETB effect, no evasion, and no synergy trigger, which means it gets outclassed by creatures that do something when they land. Naya commanders built around raw power and high-stat creatures are the only real home, and even there Woolly Thoctar competes with creatures that have comparable stats plus upside.
