Random Generator gave me Callow Jushi and Verdant Catacombs. This is my second attempt at mashing up the two cards. My first attempt, Krimson Kount got so messy that he got stripped down to only the things I liked about the card, and wasn't a true mashup... so I'm re-tackling this combination.

Originally, the first ability was a Terimorphic Expanse for Swamp and Forest only... but that was too many words, so I just cut back to colorless. Besides, I'm sure there would be plenty of unhappy players with one counter on this who were refusing to sacrifice it to get only one land, when they could have two if they just drew a damned Elf. Who needs the grief?

This is probably too strong. Maybe not. Not many elves you can play on round 1 that cost {1} ...

by Alex:

I always like fetchlands that can fetch two lands. Krosan Verge is about the only one we've seen. The restriction to Elves means this will sadly be very niche in usage, which is a pity, but it's certainly a reasonable card for that niche kind of deck.
