Nice, a Nylea's Presence for creatures.

Better than Nylea's Presence, and the art is nice too!

Karametra keeps a Blistercoil Weird in her cornucopia for those times when she harvests too many cantrips.

Better than Utopia Vow if you don't want a Pacifism effect in your deck.

A cantrip that turns one of your creatures into a 'utopia manadork'.

• Given that you have a creature without summoning sickness, this initially only costs you one mana for manafixing.
• In the subsequent turns, your favored manadork provides a ramp
   • The dork might even be of better use despite getting tapped:
       Inspired creatures (like Pain Seer) are the most obvious choice in-block.
       But this seems especially appealing with Untap-creatures, since it allows for multiple activations:
            Puresight Merrow seems particularly interesting, since it allows you to mill your whole library instantly up to the
            card you want, which you will then immediately draw thanks to Karametra's Favor etb-carddraw.

Putting this on any creature with Inspired or Heroic enables infinite triggering of that Inspired or Heroic ability in combination with Elite Arcanist and Triton Tactics. You're basically exchanging the 1 damage from Zur-Taa Druid in the combo for whatever the Heroic or Inspired ability is.

Kinda bummed it didn't say "Enchanted creature is a land creature and is every basic land type in addition to its other types"

Freed from the Real has inspired me.

A little riskier than a farseek, but enables heroic fine enough. A great target for this would be a creature that's played for it's ETB effect and whose body is not as relevant. Satry Wayfinder comes to mind.

People might rate this higher if they thought about attaching Karametra’s Favor to Seeker of Skybreak, and tapping her to un-tap herself for infinite coloured mana from two cards, costing two drop for Seeker and -1,000 colour drop for the combo.

As I’m not greedy and I want to keep my friends, I’ll just put this on Karametra’s Acolyte in my Green White Rainbow deck and untap them for 2 any-coloured and roughly 12 green mana each turn.

In sealed this card was perfectly playable. I was lacking in power, so it let me splash 2 blue and 2 green/black cards in what was otherwise a mono green deck. It also enabled my Centaur Battlemasters. On a few occasions I had to cast it on an opponent's dude to draw action. While those moments didn't tend to work out, their was never any downside to giving them mana. I'd guess in draft, though I'd rather not run it, I'd run it if I ended up Heroicish kind of Green/X. If I was forced to pick one before pick 8 I'd be very disappointed. I was a lot more excited about it that I should have been when it got spoiled.
