Trostani, Selesnya's Voice

...Hrm. 4 CMC for G/W decks, racks up life, and has a 3 CMC repeatable Populate effect...

Would've been more interesting to me if she double-populated, but hey, you can't argue with free life and a 2/5.

Discuss.

Will be amazing this format, especially with the fact it avoids so much removal (Mizzium Mortars, Auger Spree, other stuff).

I don't even care about the populate, but LOOK AT THAT FIRST ABILITY. A guy posted this on MtGSalvation and everyone thought it was fake. Guess it wasn't.

Thragtusk > +8 life
Restoration Angel > +3 life
Restoration Angel blink (Thragtusk LTB effect) > +3 life
Restoration Angel blink (Thragtusk ETB effect) > +8 life

WHY DOES THAT EXIST.

Pretty sure this comes joint with Niv-Mizzet with favourite guild leader so far.

I do wish it had abilities to do with the number 3. Sisters of Stone Death did.

I have already stated my opinion that G/W midrange will be one of the best decks in the format, I can see this being an underrated all-star tbh. It doesn't so much, so a lot of people will just shrug it off, but playing this can virtually spell game, especially with Selesnya's pseudo-manland.

Also, Cursed, last line of that combo should be +8 life.

Fixed. 22 life is genuinely stupid. It also completely nullifies the point of reprinting Heroes' Reunion in RtR.

I'm also with you on G/W midrange.
