Character Bio:
In the folklore of its plane, the Animar is the ultimate source of all life—the seed from which all creation grows. In the presence of Animar, crops blossom and herds thrive, and the wake of its wanderings determines the course of the seasons.

Planeteers: Earth! Fire! Water! .... ....
Animar: By your powers combined, I am Captain Plant Man!
Gaea: eh, close enough.

On one hand, there are so many decks that I want to build around him.
On the other hand, he preorders for $10 apiece.
Hmm...
See you later, landlord! It looks like I'll be living in a cardboard box with my kickass card collection.

Damn, I was so sure that my 5-colour elemental deck was finished. Done. Dusted. Now this comes out and it seems such a perfect fit. Perhaps a better fit than Horde of Notions? Damnit, I don't know!

It's pretty funny that a creature who flavor-wise: "... is the ultimate source of all life—the seed from which all creation grows. In the presence of Animar, crops blossom and herds thrive, and the wake of its wanderings determines the course of the seasons.", yet in his EDH deck I'm finding myself wanting to cram as many hollow, man-made artifact creatures as possible. Lulz.

Powerful synergistic abilities, and I think great art, too.
Oh, also just wanted to say that his protection from Black/White is kind of thrown in there, but it makes him much more powerful. This means he just totally unblockable against white, black, or Orzhov EDH decks and they have no way of removing him save for board-wipes. Also, he never gets path'd, swords'd, or any black targeted removal.

Work nicely with creatures like Mystic Snake, makes them cheaper and remain a counter-bear.

Confound it, I run a Red Green Blue deck, and all the cards that actually use those colors don't fit. Of course, its not a commander deck, so this bothers me less.
