This is probably a green card, white could do it. This is just much more established in greens pie slice

this also doesnt seem super azorius or meletis

its for White Red, I think they need a card advantage spell

for sure. But this might not be the right one :P

this actually is similar enough to Board the Weatherlight for me to be comfortable with it, well done! (Could cost {1}{w})

it could and it might.

This card doesn't generate any card advantage btw. It can, however, generate disadvantage if somehow your top five cards don't contain any creatures.

'Historic' is hardly the same as 'creature', but the effect isn't unspeakable in {w}. It's just very, very well established in {g}, which makes it feel weird.

This is Commune with Nature, right? Not unthinkable in white, just... not exactly carrying white's torch.

I really would like this if it said "up to two creature cards with cmc/power 3/2 or less". Would fill out the mana cost/rarity better and put itself into the color in one swoop. It also usually fits the red-white aggressive weenie strategy so would actually create card advantage there.

It would also potentially achieve the mentioned goal of the {w}{r} pair getting a card advantage spell - for better or worse. I think I like the idea.

Yea that would be a lot more fitting for the archtype, mechanically. gathering soldiers is better flavorly written like that too

I think the p/t idea works well. Perhaps I can rework the card to fit into white. It would be rather punishing on {w/r} to lose it's only 'fuel' spell. The archetype is fast and needs juice!

cost less, and grabs things differently

I like it
