I suppose you could say this is the "original" Planeswalker Support card.

Elves are awesome in Standard right now. Great P/T. Combine with Nissa obviously, and you have an endless cycle of these elves.

wtf, this is NOT powercreep. this is not strictly better than elvish warrior. elvish warrior goes to your graveyard, which is a very accessible place. heck, I'd argue that this is WORSE than elvish warrior outside of a nissa deck.

Are some people really so naive, ignorant or uncreative to not realize that many decks would rather have a creature stay in the graveyard rather than get sent to the bottom of the library?

Ever hear of threshold, for instance? This is NOT strictly better than Elvish Warrior. Unless you have Nissa herself, it's not even better.

Lol, Garruk's Companion has rendered this powercreep discussion moot.

Why are people saying saying this is strictly better than Elvish Warrior? Not only has LeefWheels mentioned Muraganda Petroglyphs already, but there are also cards with threshold. Not to mention Patriarch's Bidding or Living Death.

If this guy shows power creep, what does that say about Kazandu Blademaster, who becomes a 2/2 right away unless he's immediately pinged, grows stronger whenever another Ally enters the battlefield, and has first strike and vigilance?

The decks which want things to stay in the graveyard typically don't want Elvish Warrior any way.

Besides, both Elvish Warrior and Nissa's Chosen are just slightly bigger bears, nothing to get excited about either way, sure they have a relevant subtype, but there are many other elves to fill the 2 drop spot much more effectively that either of them
