Yes it's nice but I think Drumhunter is a better choice.

If you think about how many cards this is actually going to draw you and on what sort of timescale, it's generally not a very good card. Unless you're in the situation where you're constantly casting fatties (are they constantly getting hit with removal, perhaps?) then it will underperform. In fact even in a deck where it would seem to go great, it has never drawn me more than 3 cards and regularly drawn me 0 or 1.
It is a fun multiplayer card though.

You might want to consider Garruk's Packleader instead.

Garruk's Packleader Pros -Only requires a creature with 3 power instead of 4 -is a 4/4 itself Cons -Susceptible to things like Doom Blade, Path to Exile, etc.
Kavu Lair Pros -It's an enchantment so board sweeps will rarely affect it -Powers up enchantment-based creatures Cons -Dies to Naturalize
Solution: Use both!

Very true, scumbling1...what kind of green deck can't destroy an opponent (or multiple opponents) after drawing many of their beatsticks?

@test-subject Another con of Kavu Lair is that it helps your opponents, too.

Great in EDH. I run it in Mayael the Anima, and all but 2-3 of my creatures are 4+. Not an absurdly powerful card, but fun none the less.

Question if a creature gets a bonus upon entering, like a creature that gets +3/+3 from say coat of arms, would it count for this ability?
