Cantankerous Keepers

rare Creature — Elf Soldier

Gets you extra cards

Why it lets you down in Elf Landfall

Each Elf you control cuts from this 6-mana 4/3 Elf, and when it enters it four cards and puts every Elf card among them into your hand. Even with two Elves out you pay 4 for a 4/3, and four cards from a deck with about eight Elves often hold one Elf or none. Drafters still take the rare around pick 6.

How to play it

Boughside Wanderers or a spell is the better pick. Cast it only once it costs 4 or less, with two or more Elves out (Elf count), and expect about one extra card.
