Or for 3 mana, you can get an elf who gives all your other elves forestwalk and +1/+1. And she's a 2/2.

Currently the worst voted elf, because, ya know, Elvish Champion

Well, Elvish Champion can't give herself or your partners' (i.e. two headed giant) elves forestwalk, now can she? Also, if for some reason you were playing a not green elf deck and you wanted to simply splash green, this guy would be easier to include.

If you ever find yourself needing to do one of those things then this is the card for you

not likely because if you are playing two headed giant with someone else with an elf deck, they probably have Elvish Champions of their own, and who would only splash green in an elf deck?

Weatherseed Elf would also be a better forestwalk choice.

Elvish Champion affects all Elves controlled by all players, so if you're playing with someone else with an elf deck then 1 is enough to make even your teammates have forest walk.

I can't believe Todd Lockwood had to waste his talent on this one... that art could have been better used.

This card needs "bands with legendary lands" to become the GREATEST CARD EVER!!!

FINALLY! After looking at soooooo many horrible black common zombies, finally I see a horrible ELF. Elves are usually insanely undercosted, so it's nice to see an overcosted elf. Hell just froze over.

I don't care what you all say. Im gonna give this 5 stars just to make this card's rating above the wood elemental's

Certainly one of the worst cards of all time. Although it doesn't do /nothing/ so it isn't a 0.5 card like say, wood elemental, it is still pure garbage.

I mean you know you've made a bad card when it could cost A QUARTER THE MANA and it still wouldn't be good.

Edit: I take back what I said before. Although this does something, the something it does is so rubbish that it might as well be nothing. Thus it is fair to give it 0.5, while recognising there are some 0.5 cards that are worse than others.

well, on the bright side, it's got good art. And...uh, actually that's the only good thing about this card.

Green's Chimney Imp. That doesn't mean he's as good, though.

It's not horrible... if you're playing an elf deck, you can sometimes get very big, especially with a door of destinies or an Immaculate Magistrate. In EDH, it can get useful, because nearly everyone is playing three colors, giving you an okay chance of someone running green.

With another elf that does the same thing for much cheaper, this guy is just useless.

Whoa.
This elf sucks.

Honestly... he still would be pretty unremarkable at one mana.

Its a limited filler, and outclassed by elvish champion. But this still can be better in an elf mirror match, and you can have one guy slip through after getting pumped by Timberwatch Elf.

This could cost Green and still not see play, but it would be much better then it is right now.

He's not so bad, once you get to know him.
