Bringing back green hitting planeswalkers, which it has occasionally had, although green hasn't had this since Khans block'sDestructor Dragon and Display of Dominance. While green can normally destroy lands, I took that off because it didn't help with the counter route I wanted to go with this creature.

Maybe 6 or less in case there are no combinations giving exactly 6

Also this wrecks tokenS

forgot to make it target

Fair point on tokens. Treasure is the most common noncreature token in this set. Players can sac their treasure tokens in response. I don't know how frequent other noncreature token strategies are, to the point. I do have cards in this set that make artifact tokens and an enchantment that makes token copies of itself, though I don't know if those would have decks built around them to the point that this would be played as a countermeasure to them.
