Zhur-Taa Swine enters as a 5/4 that deals 5 damage to each opponent via bloodrush — six mana for a combat trick that ends the game is too much to ask. Bulk rare for a reason; there are better ways to close in Gruul.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |

| oathbreaker | legal |
Zhur-Taa Swine is legal across Commander, Pauper, Pioneer, Modern, Legacy, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but sees essentially no play in any of them. In Pauper it's outclassed by cheaper bloodrush options and more efficient beaters. In Commander, six mana for a one-shot combat trick that requires an attacker already connecting is too conditional to build around — the bloodrush ability can end a player, but the setup cost makes it a win-more rather than a win condition.

At $0.04, Zhur-Taa Swine is deep bulk — you're paying for the cardboard, not the card. Demand is low enough that this price is a ceiling, not a floor.
