Reviews

Proactively tapping down a blocker or untapping a creature after it attacks is pretty good when you get it for free, which is exactly what Elven Raft-Steerer is capable of doing. If you can get multiple land drops in one turn, then getting to down multiple things is also really nice, allowing you to apply a lot more pressure, or even win in one attack.

How to draft it

Roles in each deck

  • Elf Landfall Rewards the plan

    On each this 3-mana 3/2 Elf taps one of the opponent's creatures or untaps one of yours. One creature a turn rarely decides a game, and a 3/2 in its first trade.

    How to play it

A land before combat taps their best blocker, and a Hobbit Hole cracked at the start of their combat taps their biggest attacker. The untap mode can untap Woodland Weavemaster for a second round of Elf mana.
