Oddly, I think we can shave a
here. After all, in a lot of matchups, it's just going to turn a Llanowar Elves into a Moss Diamond. I can dig this, though. I find it especially funny when matched with cards like Inferno. Or maybe Alex's Citanul Hierophant + Skirk Fire Marshal?
Mmm, I think this would be better on a mana-creature rather than on an enchantment. Makes the "Ok, I can make mana and you can't easily stop me" a more obvious thing; while sacrificing your ability to chump with them later.
I don't know whether it's casual-etiquette, or what - but few people seem to shoot mana creatures.
Plus Citanul Hierophants plus Donate!!!1
Kinda fun though.
Spelling error in name fixed.
Oops! I shouldn't try to love things from my Kindle.
It's not strictly better than Llanowar Elves, but it is probably better in most situations. It's usually worse than Birds of Paradise, though.
I'd be cool with that. It would get really messy with cards like City of Brass, though. And I'd be tempted to retemplate all old cards... though, that could be done years from now.
La la la. Ice-Age can't hear you.
It is pretty odd though. (And I did say 'a choice of' - dropping all 13 into play would be kinda nutso.)
I take a different tack to jm though - I figure that since "I am a forest" is implicitly "Taps for green", the reverse should be true and more duals should be forests. Of course; that wrecks a whole bunch of pre-existing landsearch; so it can't happen, but I don't see it as repugnant in the same way.
I'd just love to see the deck built around actually using this.
The fact that this card can exist is what makes me facepalm. Personally, I think the Dual-Lands in Ravnica was a mistake... especially since cards like Hallowed Fountain don't remind me of being an Island or a Plains. It was probably the worst block possible to start that pandora's box. Now we've got a whole crop of designers who are just adding land types to their dual lands because it makes Spike happy. We've made the game more complicated, with very little return.
That being said, I like this card. And if I was going to see a card abuse the proliferation of land types, I think an over the top rare is a cool way to do it.
Solution: Use snowbunnies.
Probably because of what the new player's response would be. "Forest cards? With different names? What the bunnies?"
Hmmm. Almost always a llanowar elf, sometimes a dual-colour elf.
but if this copies abilities granted by enchantments and equipment, I guess it could be more useful. An interesting and fair and not ridiculously overpowered rare! It's not even strictly better than a Llaonwar Elf!
Why the facepalm, jmgariepy?
Vitenka, I considered having it drop all of them onto the battlefield, but as it is currently worded, it only drops two. The rest go into your hand.
Also notable that most of the lands it could choose have a ETB tapped clause anyway, so you're not really losing anything by bringing them out this way.
This card is simultaneously awesome, and makes me want to facepalm.
Seems kinda dependant on owning the cards; and then it drops a choice of up to 13 lands into play (one of them a creature) tapped. Ouch. But it's 5 green, and getting close to "Ok, I'm gonna win now" cost, so maybe?
Ha! Yeah, it's probably too good, in the same vein that a land that untapped whenever you cast a spell is probably too good. That being said, I like the ability. It would make a pretty good
cost artifact or so...
Fact: Trying to make cards as fast as possible because you've forgotten a deadline results in broken cards.
No, I meant that I'm pretty sure someone has made a blue version of Dryad Arbor with this same flavor and P/T.
