Well, mana acceleration should be FAST.

Eh, it's immune to most sweep which kills all the other elves. And the jump from 4 to 5 mana can be a big hurdle. But it's still not all that good.

Four mana for a 3/3... been there, done that. But wait, you can tap them for a Green! Unfortunately, who needs that ability when you're in a position to play these sorry dudes. Skip 'em and use Llanowar and Quirion Elves instead - they're more fun at parties, too.

I miss cards like this.

I don't mean bad, but cards that could fill a unique niche with generic abilities. Now they just print more powerful cards.

I can see why this is a Druid, based on the ability. I can see why it's a Warrior, based on the stats and art. But still . . . Trooper just means Soldier to me.

Pointless to have mana acceleration on turn 4. Just play Llanowar Elves.
