Running 2 of these in my casual elf deck, really loving them. Absolutely great green card.

So perfectly designed, maybe almost too well. Green is my second-to-last favorite color in the pie and I was ECSTATIC when this was spoiled.

@DrakAttack Blightsteel Colossus and Emrakul are not green, not without the aforementioned Painter's Servant.

Dryad Arbor lives directly underneath the Green Sun, apparently. I like that casting this card for Variable Colorless=0 isn't dead.

@ Kalatash: Yes, two shuffles, for somewhat daft reasons. The card Comandeer lets an opponent take control of this spell. Unless you'd want your opponent to shuffle your card into their library, the shuffle effect has to be written twice, or else Commandeer would let them sort of literally steal your card. :)

I think there's a rule in the Comprehensive Rules somewhere that says if you'd shuffle multiple times without intervening stuff happening, you and your opponents can agree to just shuffle in an obvious/appropriate way.

The worst "do I really have to shuffle again" offender was Mind's Desire. Cool card, but resolving it could take fifteen minutes, sometimes. Bleh.

The mathematician/physicist/old-school-astronomer in me loves the perfect use of the obscure-ish word "Zenith" on this cycle of cards.

This was the closest thing modern had to Worldly Tutor. It was banned because of that and because of Dryad Arbor.

Green zenit got a slot in From the Vault: Twenty. And it earned it, in my opinion.

Electrifying in Limited. Sick in Standard.

This card is scary versatile - it can even act as a 1 mana rampant growth in formats with Dryad Arbor.

Even starting to see play in eternal formats... 5/5

@YawgmothsWish

I heard Dryad Arbor is why this was banned in modern.

An absurdly good green tutor in a long line of absurdly good green tutors. And it recurs!

I'm going to build {G}/{R} and use this with Blitz Hellion, I think.
