Don't underestimate the power to gain life and populate 2/2 knights, 3/3 centaurs, 3/3 beasts and the powerful 5/5 wurm tramplers.
Detention Sphere won't be enough to stop this token crazyness, and Supreme Verdict will face Rootborn Defenses..
Terminus seems much better now.

@Tackman: 15 on the turn that you blink it, but you're getting -> 23 <- total life from the combo :D 16 from thragtusk entering... 3 from Her token... and 4 from Restoration Angel *I know that you know the total, but it's for others that want to see* ... Selesnya is WAY underrated.

I must've looked at this card a thousand times and not realised how cheap she is to cast. Probably due to being in the same guild as Chorus of the Conclave.
This changes things. Mmm.

I love this card. The art, the flavor, just everything. Pretty under-rated with only getting a 3,5, atm. It´s not one of these cards, which makes everyone stand in awe, when they enter the battlefield, but to me, that´s actually rather a positive thing. And if you know how to properly build your deck around, it can win against any deck.
I hear people saying, that Rhys would be a better general... Well, Rhys definitely has his advantages too, but he mostly only produces little 1/1 or perhaps 2/2 tokens, while Trostani may be a little bit slower, but instead produces bigger tokens, most of the time (one of my favorite spells for Trostani is Wurmcalling for example). Even if you only produce 3/3 tokens, that´s still a whole new level, than just 2/2 tokens, and wayyy less vulnerable.
Apart from this, Rhys himself is just rediculously vulnerable too. One only has to play an Elesh Norn, and all of his beloved Elf tokens plus himself are most likely gone for a good whi... (see all)

@ NuckChorris Vitu-Ghazi Guildmage is great and all but it can be costly to use 6 mana for one 3/3 Centaur and it costs one more to populate then Trostani.
Personally i would rather get Trostani out and then use Call of the Conclave then you have the life gain and a cheaper populate. Sure the Guildmage costs GW less. but id prefer Trostani just for her better life expectancy with 5 defense she can block most things and keep on ticking.

I got a Golgari intro pack the other day. Get 2 booster packs with it. First pack, had this in it. Too bad, I already became set on a Golgari deck for now. Would have loved to use this card tbh.
Still, mythic rare for my first Magic pack in years? Outstanding :D

So many great combos in commander.
Phyrexian Processor Pay life for tokens, then get that life back. Every turn.
Storm Herd Get tokens, double your life total.
Ajani Goldmane See above.
Mimic Vat Returns your dead creatures as tokens for cheap. Populate them and it's like they were never gone.
Séance See above.
Soul Foundry Same as above but without waiting for your favourite creature to die.
Orochi Hatchery Sure, why not?
Nacatl War-Pride Make tokens of tokens that make more tokens!
That's all staying within her colors. Most of the cards are dirt cheap too.
To keep the mana flowing use Citanul Hierophants.
Don't forget untappers, buffs and multiple sources of populate! And for the love of god protect your commander!

I can't be the only Vorthros that's annoyed she's not a 3/6 instead of a 2/5. If she was a 3/6, it would imply that each dryad is an even 1/2. As is, we have to assume two of them are 1/2 and one is a 0/1. Which one of you isn't holding up your end in combat, huh?

This card is amazing, every time she is in my Battlefield is almost a win! With Armada Wurm my GW Tokens deck gives me a lot of life and a lot of body to hit my enemies! A 5/5 for sure! Love it!

Anyone else find it funny that the most powerful of the guild leaders (Trostani, Jarad, Rakdos) are also the cheapest ones?
