instantly a staple in elf ramp!
turn one: her
Two: level her- still have two mana on 2nd turn for something else. like maybe two lanowar elves.
Three: five mana, without using up a second turn on her. Seven if you played those lanowars. With that mana, you hit big wurms, well thats what i use it for. Or level her to four, then
Turn four: Level herself to five, still have 8 mana out.
Five: ten mana, assuming you have 5 land drops, and didn't ramp some more. Which you probably did. Hey, with ten, you can Genisis Wave them seven drops.
Absolutly up there with lanowar elves

Wow. As soon as new phyrexia comes out, you'll be able to get a 5/6 turn 2 with her. Turn one, drop her. Turn 2, level once, add two, spend on Myr Superion. Watch your opponent bang their head against table. :)

How to hard cast Kozilek on turn 4 in standard (heck, even in Rise or block constructed)
T1. Forest, Joraga Treespeaker
T2. Eldrazi Temple, counter on Joraga Treespeaker, cast another Treespeaker
T3. Land, counter on the new Treespeaker, Overgrown Battlement, 3 mana spare (heck, you could even cast another Joraga Treespeaker and give it a counter, have 2 mana spare, and get Ulamog out on T4 instead!)
T4. Land, Kozilek
A bit of a God hand, and it requires your critters not being removed, but it's totally sweet when you get it. You almost empty your hand out doing it, then on turn 4 you've got a 12/12 annihilator 4 with 5 cards in hand.
There's an obvious reason why she's better than Llanowar Elves though, even though the elves boost you to 3 mana on turn 2 - it's the ripple effect. She may only get you to 2 mana on turn 2, but let's say that the Llanowar elf player casts 3 more Llanowar Elves on turn 2 (I'm not including Archdruid because that card is just ridic), then on turn 3 if th... (see all)

Bursama, you need something to use all that mana on?
Enter Wolfbriar Elemental.

Since it can tap for 2 the second turn you have it out, you really don't lose any tempo with it.

Definitely one of the better cards out there. Opening up earlier Gigantomancers, Eldrazi, or pretty much anything you want in a green deck.

While the card is pretty good, it still isn't going in my legacy elf deck. Priest of Titania is still much stronger^^
None the less, i really like the card. but it just a bit to slow, when the aim is a turn 3 combo

This is one of the very few well-designed level-up critters. It's symmetrical and you don't fell like you've wasted the mana spent for the level counter, you get it right back. And then it pays for itself. Pretty cool.
