Amazing 2 drop. Sure it's a measly 1/1, but once it's pumped, you might force your opponent to wrath the board, just to get rid of it.

I love this elf! She's won me many games, suited up with moldervine cloak.

I almost feel that this card is kind of overpowered for a 2 CMC creature. I feel it would've been fair if it only had one of the abilities or kept both of them but cost or something.

This card is certainly not overpowered. "Troll shroud" is of course very useful, but this is, regarding combat, just a more evasive version of Slippery Bogle. It's a 1/1 two-drop which doesn't do anything spectacular by itself unless you buff it with spells like Berserk, Rancor and/or Might of Old Krosa. For three mana it would be rather junk.

Good stuff...it inspires decks just to make it go the distance...and more often than not, it does :) Oh, and it's a common? I know what my new pauper deck is going to be :P

I used to play my friend's Jund deck with some decks I built out of old Ravnica block cards I had. Of course, the power levels were completely uneven and I got sick of having all my creatures Terminated or Maelstrom Pulsed. So I threw together a Golgari deck featuring this girl, Moldervine Cloak, Shambling Shell, and Wurmweaver Coil to power her up, Gather Courage to power up and protect her from Jund Charm when my friend thinks I'm tapped out, Shred Memory to tutor for her if I don't get her in my opening hand, and packed the rest with removal like Last Gasp and Putrefy. Worked like a charm.

Not only can it not be blocked by creatures with "Reach", it can't be hit by typical green anti-flying burns. This is "Flying" without the keyword, making it impervious to certain card conditions.

This works differently than Flying: it's more like she gains Flying when she attacks. And flavorfully it makes sense: she's not exactly flying, only walking on roofs, but it definitely takes a flying creature to stop her.
As for the card, I've definitely had fun Moldervine Cloaking her and handing her some Loxodon Warhammers (really brutal). When she appeared on the other side, well, the very fact that my friend plays her incentivized me to put Pyroclasm in my decks. I like green creatures with troll shroud, but I believe we definitely need more playable cards to deal with them, especially at common and uncommon. (like an uncommon conditional Wrath variant)

One of my favorite cards in limited, it made its way into my Gruul aura deck along with creatures like Bramble Elemental and auras like Wurnweavercoil, Beastmaster's Magemark, Fencer's Magemark and Fists of Ironwood.
I think that they should give this type of flying a keyword, like "Slippery", Bogley", or "Stealth" Just ignore the first two

One of my favourites, good to see so many other people like it too. It makes auras (like the new Angelic Destiny) so much more playable. I prefer it over Gladecover Scout, too, for that handy evasiveness that is often lacking in green.

An absolute beast in casual play. If your friend doesn't have any counterspells, mass removal, or edicts, this thing can carry the game.

Forgive me if it wouldn't work out so well in paper magic, but in the video game 2012 version, this card is an enchantment queen. Put her out on turn 2 and then load her up with all the umbras you can for the rest of the game and the only thing the opponent can hope for is a board wipe, board bounce, forcing a sac, or putting out a low cost flyer, which Rancor makes almost irrelevant unless it's a Nighthawk but that's why I used a Hyena Umbra.

This may be the best common green creature ever printed.
It's an Elf. It's a Rogue. It has all the benefits of flying and none of the downsides. It can't be blocked by Spiders and Archers. It doesn't die to Doom Blade, but is ready to accept everything from Gather Courage to Wurmweaver Coil. Ledgewalker has the capacity to win games. All for a measly two mana. I wish I could rate this higher than 5 stars.

A nice Dust Corona gives you an unblockable 3/1 with troll-shroud.
I'm genuinely confused why this card is so beloved yet Invisible Stalker is so criticized for being overpowered, non-interactive, unfun, etc. They're basically the same thing.

Y U NO BE BLOCK BY REACH?
@crimson_sunrise: Indeed. It's probably because being blockable by flying creatures makes people feel safe.

That this is a common is unbelievable. These are the kinds of mythics I'd like to see, low mana cost for a fun yet strong creature. Make this a 2/2 Legend and it's a mythic.
Swing for 4, draw two cards. One of several strong hands I see often in my mono-green deck, I don't usually get the 2nd keen sense, that's just a bonus.
