How many creatures can block one attacker.
In general, as much as you want/can.
Say your opponent has a 25/25 and you have 25 1/1 creatures, you can block his big guy with all 25 and kill it.
There can be abilities that modify that, however.
Let´s say the 25/25 has first strike, all 25 1/1 are dead and the big guy still have full health right?

Yes, correct. You'd need 50 in that case..

Now imagine if that attacking creature was a first-striking {Craw Giant}...

I advise {terror} for that one ;)
You can still block with as many creatures as you'd wish, but in the case of {craw giant}, any blocker beyond the first needs at least 2 toughness to reduce the amount of damage you'd take.
Rampage 2 = for each blocker beyond the first, the creature gets +2/+2. Very oldskool.
With the trample, if you block with say 2 1/1 creatures, it would get +2/+2, deal 2 damage to the creatures and 6 to you.
With 3, it'd get +4/+4, dealing 3 to the creatures and 7 to you. With 26 it'd get +50/+50 and deal 26 to the creatures and 30 to you....
Very nice vs token decks with {lure} and a way to untap all your opponents creatures.
