Would be awesome without that last line... now it's just mediocre.

Why the restriction??? It renders the card useless, although it did gain functionality after the 6th edition update... for a 1/1 better give me something special, this is just meh.

He would be amazing without the restriction, very iffy with it. Some kind of shroud would make him an interesting source of damage, but there are way better things to drop 1GG on.

Decent protection against Storm decks, that's all I can think of.

Green is known for its cheap, efficient creatures. Three mana for a 1/1 with a ridiculous ability, damaging opponent who cast more than one instant per turn, is anything but. Obviously, if your opponent is planning to go instant-happy, your Druid won't live long enogh to be an obstacle. This makes him, essentially, the world's most expensive weenie.

Many people don't realize what a silver bullet this guy was against Storm decks in Legacy. Before the banning of Survival of the Fittest, this guy was a go-to answer to Storm, severely limiting the number of spells they could cast to get their storm going. Also a decent bullet against counterspells.

I really don't see how this is good against legacy storm. "I tendrils you for 20 life." "Fine, in response I hit you for four." "I'm still at 11... got anything else?" "NAH M8 GG"

Maybe a more fair way to take advantage of Erayo? What am I saying, there's no fair way to use Erayo.

@ Kryptnyt
Presumably, he is played before your opponent starts building storm count, as almost all the mana acceleration used in tendrils-storm is instant.
Also, tendrils itself is a sorcery. Do your homework.

people defending him are wrong. even though he's got almost-potential, the fact is, yeah, you try playing him against those decks, and he is probably not going to do enough damage. against storm, I would be very surprised if Storm could not find some kind of answer to him. I think this guy has great potential in casual/EDH to deliver on the promises he offers. :)
for Legacy, he'd be playable if he was 2 mana....but...at 3 mana, we just have too many better 2 mana creatures we could be playing instead to be proactive instead of reactive.
