Why not just use Nissa Revane? Double the life gain!

I actually overpowered one of these things with a single creature. After my opponent had activated Nissa Revane's ultimate.
Admittedly, his deck kinda sucked(this was the only good elf in it), but that was a boatload of life to brute-force through.
Him not being able to get through to me due to my army of 8/8 forests helped allot.

I cant believe they passed up the opp to give this new art.
Also, it wouldve been a lot better for all if this card had never been printed.

It's name, wellwisher, is a misnomer. It wishes you nothing but hate.

This with a few other elves including Copperhorn Scout is extremely effective (especially in the early game) for giving yourself a huge health reserve. Tap her for health, then attack with your other elves (including Copperhorn Scout), then as she untaps as a result of Copperhorn, tap her a 2nd time. It gets out of control (for your opponent) if you have multiple Wellwishers who are well protected.

Calling this card "broken in an elf deck" is disengenuous, especially considering it's a creature that needs to be out for a full turn before it can start doing its magic. It's powerful... but players have opportunities to respond to this.
If this card is broken, then what is Heritage Druid, Quirion Ranger, and Wirewood Symbiote? Those 3 cards do some instant speed shenanigans in an Elf deck like you wouldn't believe.
