Trample
Lethal damage dealt to creatures you control is determined by their power rather than their toughness.
Zilortha turns your creatures into combat monsters: they only die to damage equal to or greater than their power, so a 10/1 effectively has 10 'toughness' against damage. Deploy big high-power creatures, swing with trample, and race the table while shrugging off chip damage and most damage-based blocks/sweepers. You ramp aggressively, drop fatties, and overrun the table by turns 5-7.
High-power creatures become absurdly durable against combat and damage-based removal
Trample on the commander and built-in beatdown lets you push through chump blockers
Cheap glass-cannon creatures (huge power, tiny toughness) suddenly become reliable threats
Gruul ramp gets you to the big payoffs fast
Does nothing against -X/-X effects, sacrifice, exile, or edicts
Reliant on attacking, so removal of Zilortha or your key beaters stalls you
Light on card advantage and interaction typical of Gruul
Vulnerable to flyers and pillow-fort/fog strategies that blank your ground assault
Toughness-zero tricks and Toxic Deluge ignore the ability entirely A 12/12 for one mana that, under Zilortha, only dies to 12 damage—an early unkillable beater.
Cheap, enormous power with trample that becomes hard to block down and hits like a truck.
Doubles a creature's power and grants haste, leaning hard into the high-power durability plan.
A near-free board wipe that kills opposing creatures while your high-power army largely survives.
Doubles power and grants trample for a single mana, lethal swings that your own creature easily survives thanks to Zilortha.
Anthems your whole team by your biggest creature's power for a one-shot alpha strike.
