by Alex:

Hm. It makes a 1/1 every turn for no ongoing cost except needing to be defended. Seems better than Nissa, Voice of Zendikar which only makes a 0/1 every turn, and she cost 3.

by jmgariepy:

Alternatively, this card is 'free' on the first turn (play a different one cost creature with it), then puts two 1/1s on the battlefield for every turn after that. If your opponent doesn't have evasion or direct damage, that would be game in an otherwise balanced environment.

by Vitenka:

Yes, this does seem excessively strong.

Nice game with "Do I power up the number it produces, or produce now" but just a tiny bit too good for it. This concern probably goes away if it's a 3-drop; but maybe there's a way to depower it a bit without losing the 1-doprness of it.

Getting a tranquility effect on top of that is gravy, though at -5 seems basically unreachable unless Doubling Season is hanging around.

by Sorrow:

The one-drop aspect was a consequence of how I originally judged the abilities. Would {g} {g} {g} starting loyalty 2 and the +0 being changed to a -1 ability make it more manageable? Would {g} {g} {g} be too rough? Maybe just {1} {g} {g} ?
