"adding new Isles to Shimmeranth's collection."
Love it!
Yeah, this is cool. It'd be nice if out could be 3 mana, but given Growth Spasm and Farhaven Elf I think 4 is correct.
Thank you both!
Yeah, I suspected this was a little weak at 4. It started as a sorcery version of farhaven elf, but I increased it from one token to two tokens to justify being a sorcery instead of a creature, and to make it a bit more like a colonisation.
It would be nice if it could be slightly stronger, or slightly stronger than farhaven elf for 3 mana. I also considered giving you the tokens only if you searched for a forest, or something like that, but it didn't seem quite right either. Maybe it could put the land in untapped?
Oh yes, getting the land out untapped makes sense for "between 3 and 4 mana", and has precedent on a 4-mana search spell (Reap and Sow).
