wait, green isn't supposed to get burns (even if they are restricted), what's going on here?

But it's not really burn like fire. It's burn by arrows, which has been done countless times before. I do like this card though.

This is a awesome green one drop common removal spell. Thank you to whom ever created it.

I dunno...honestly, what are you going to kill with this in the current standard? Good sideboard for vamps I guess.

@ Laguz: This seems nearly tailored for vamps :) slingbow trap is tutorable with trapmaker's snare though so... i guess in a very vamp heavy format you could mess up vampire nocturnus

Green Lightning Bolt for the sideboard. But I think I'd still rather use Windstorm.

Green Lightning Bolt? Calling this a burn spell? You people must be daft. This can't hit players or creatures without flying. If you think this is a green Lightning Bolt, you must think Crash Landing is a strictly better Spire Barrage.

It's not a lightning bolt! It's a LEAF!

Very useful for a Vampire Nighthawk.

with the help of Wildheart Invoker, I shot a Pestilence Demon out the sky with this card in a draft. Very good. You can almost always find a use for it. keep it in the main deck just in case.

Leaf Arrow a la lightning bolt, Plummet a la doom blade, Gravity Well a la nothing, Windstorm a la comet storm(ish), green has enough answers.

This should cantrip or hit more targets. Or even just do more damage. As long as plummet is around, this card will never see play as an flier-hate card. The 3 damage is just too restrictive.

Green, of all colors, won't mind paying a single extra mana for a much more versatile card. I mean, you can blast baneslayer and demon of deaths' gate clean out of the air.

finally something to handle storm crow

This card will never replace Plummet; however, if your metagame is heavy on flyers I can see this being played alongside with Plummet. Maybe even as a sideboard card. Still an ehhh card...

2.5/5 (the one mana is the only saving grace here)

It would be like the worst way to die, to die to a leaf.

Flavor text fail. How many Eldrazi have flying? How many of those don't have pro-colored spells? And LOL, fighting with a leaf. The whole thing is pathetic.

I used to be a flying creature, till I took a leaf arrow to the wing.
