Yea, I remember attacking with a 8/7 Winnower Patrol - that's what happens when you don't kill this card before it gets out of hand.

This is often left unchecked, and can get really really huge, and much harder to deal with, but its begging to be lightning bolted or doom bladeed as soon as its put into play.

All it takes is one counter for this card to be extremely good. There are good Elf Warrior cards out there as well, so it shouldn't be too hard.

I wish we still got elves like this instead of crap like Ezuri's Archers.

Since when a 1/2 for one with two abilities that closes one of the weak points of elf decks became crap? :o

not actually a huge fan of this, even in mono elf deck I prefer not to reveal my cards and just get my bonuses when my elves hit the field (3x huntmaster, 2x door of destinies, 4x bramble wood paragon)

Very nice with Mirri's Guile on the battlefield.

Lorwyn dropped some devastating elves, the fact that this doesn't make the cut in a lot of elf decks from the block says it all.

That said this + bramblewood paragon can be a major threat. play it after bramblewood paragon comes out and you've got a 4/3 trample for 2g, play the bramblewood after this and it'll still get trample eventually from it's own counters.

Great removal magnet that can turn into a big threat if left unchecked

In the typical warrior deck this thing can do a lot of damage the moment it turns up. Problem is, it doesn't get ignored when Bramblewood Paragon gives it a counter, since people realise quickly that it's a trampler that gets bigger.

The flavor of this card is off the charts, way better than any other kinship cards. It's a patrol of xenophobes that gets stronger every time they recruit someone like them to join in the crusade. It really fits the whole Lorwyn elves' bag.
