@Demonic_Math_Tutor: All Borken-ness aside, this is highly situational. I like it fine, but the only way you could use this is if you're actually mana dry.

Seems like a decent 2 drop - in limited or casual play only of course.

white mana ramp, sweetness.

2 CMC for a 2/2 first striker and the potential for a free plains onto the battlefield? that's a solid creature right there. Sure the land fetch is situational, but if you draw first and have him opening hand, you'll be at 4 land on turn 3, which is pretty handy for that early WoG if you need it.

Play him before your turn 3 land drop. If you didn't go first, they'll almost definitely have more land than you.

This card gave White Weenie a breath of fresh air. You can ramp into the Crucible of Worlds + Armageddon prison kill that has become standard WW fare lately.

a very good blocker at the very least and come behind mana acceleration at his best. Bounce lands and borderposts are his best friends. It is also useful to note that he acctually only costs 1 net white mana if you get land search from him since the land does not enter tapped.

Acctually has become my favorite card over time.

Use in a flicker deck to run horribly low numbers of lands, have a vigilance 2/2 that defies removal, and yet still make the land curve. 18 land mono-white is probably quite feasible. Similar can be said for land tax but.. that's a spendy card..

I can get away with only using four Hallowed Fountains for blue mana in my UW Knights deck because of this boss. He is a beast. Fear him.

I can't help bit feel that this deck really wants a Temple Garden.
