Thoughts?
What if he required the soldiers to do something to get a boost? Maybe something like "Whenever a Soldier creature you control attacks or blocks, put a +1/+1 counter on that creature" on a 2/2 first strike for with the etb fetch ability. Would also go nicely with new lands (Surgelands?).
Sure. That sounds good. Go ahead and change it.
Edited slightly for balance.
Balance Notes: Obvious comparison is to Ranger of Eos. This enters with slightly weaker stats but will always enter combat with stronger stats, and its fetch ability is slightly weaker. However, the second ability makes this very good in Soldier tribal, and it is certainly a bone to throw to EDH players. Because it enters one turn later, it won't stand up to Ranger in modern, but Ranger is fringe anyway, so that's fine.
