­Veteran Explorer was late to the party, but when I added him to replace a not-very-inspired uncommon, people were happy. There's something strange in the "everyone benefits, but I benefit more" mechanic that works with people. Also, this card happens to be both a defacto soldier and scout... two supported types in 20XX. Oddly a soldier in green, but I like a little bleed.

I played this card for the first time last night (I just got to play with my Christmas copy of the Mirror Mastery Commander deck). I like it.

That's kind of interesting. The opponent is incentivised to kill it because they get the land immediately, and can use it immediately. But on the flip side, they want to not kill it because, well, you played it and so presumably want the lands and so they wan to deny you them.

Nice.
