by Mal:

One of those "splashable" uncommons in an unsupported color combination. This can combine with {u} {b} Merchant Tribal, {g} {u} Stoic/+1/+1 counter Tribal, or as a reasonably good filler in {w} {g} / {w} {b} token swarm.

IMO this could rather easily be mono- {b} .

by Mal:

Yeah, that was definitely my initial coloring of it. However, because {g} interacts a bit with counters in this set, I wanted to throw it a bone and make it multicolored due to its interaction with counters. It's like how Sky Spirit could easily be Mono- {w} - the multicolor-ness of the card is meant to signal what types of decks might want it in draft.
