That’s actually completely wrong. See rule 704.5r from the comprehensive rules.

Pretty good. Not the best land but could be used in some decks in Standard.

Hi all i have a quick question before i rate this card. when you use oran-rief, the vastwood ability does it apply to all creatures that entered before and after the ability was used? secondly if you use persist( Scuzzback Marauders + Bramblewood Paragon + Goblin Bombardment ) and replace blamblewood paragon with oran-rief, the vastwood can you achieve the same combo?

@a7141988: +1/+1 counters do not negate and remove -1/-1 counters, all counters stay on a creature unless removed by an ability or the creature leaves play. This card can't "heal" persist...

Use four of these (the maximum I think) with and put four Arbor Elves and Joragon Warcaller into play, costing only five forest/mana pool total. Use the rest to get as many cheap elf units as possible.

Four +1/+1 counters on every unit including Joragon that has entered. Untap your Oran Rief, the Vastwoods with your Arbor Elves and put four more +1/+1 counters on every unit. Joragon doubles the effect.

Congratulations; you now have +16/+16 counters for every elf unit you gained on this turn. If you have Bramblewood Paragon out, proceed to trample all opponents to death.

FINALLY a land card that's worth something to me!! All the other rare lands are great, but I always thought they were missing something...but this land...UGH!! SO MANY POSSIBILITIES, LIKE CAMPBELL'S SOUP (possibilities)!!

So...um..any reason why this card no longer gives +1/+1 counters?

I cast this followed by some Elves and they received no benefit.
