Willing to bet Beck now has a place in modern elves. The Call part of this just seems wholely unreasonable and irrelevant outside of limited. In limited though, quite probably a bomb.

The joke is that Bant Control needed more things.
So, here are some things.

Beck is almost like Glimpse of Nature, definitely will see play. Call is overcosted like hell, but you could be casting it late game, I mean, if fused, it's at least +7.

I didn't really expect them to make a new Glimpse of Nature, but I like this card. And the mechanic is genius.

A Modern Elves revival sounds feasible with Beck. Call is just a possible bonus. Nothing massive really (although, it would have been vaguely better at 5 mana rather than 6).
I mean this idea is pretty awful, but you can draw, like, six cards with cards such as Hunted Phantasm or the other Hunted creatures. The other idea, in Standard, is to combo with Hellraiser Goblin and make a chain of Burning-Tree Emissaries, Avacyn's Pilgrims, Arbor Elves, Elvish Archdruids, Somberwald Sages. It's like Storm, but about thirty times worse.

Beck bar the color restriction is Infinitely Better Glmpse of Nature
EtB > Cast
So it surely will see play...
Gosh Bant Tokens can be a new Archetype...a really good one just for this card....XD

When it's Elves, cast > etb because on the off-chance the elf itself gets countered and Glimpse doesn't, you draw a card, with this they can actually just not counter beck, then counter the elf and get the full 2-for-1, whereas before they'd have to counter the Glimpse.

Except that this card now open space for Tokens Being included in elves and God Elves are ridiculous at token Making

Eh, modern elves look inconsistent as all f*** anyway, even with a draw a million card. Does mean they can go off on turn 3 though, technically.
