I hate the praetors, especially this guy. He would have been amazing as a 7/6 trampler that provides mana reflection but then they also stack on the land gimping ability too - I see him way too often in edh. I actually drafted a copy of him too but I feel it would be dirty using him, especially since I also use nature's will - I can imagine people conceding in disgust at that combo and I wouldnt blame them.

When you use this guy on Magic Online, how does his ability apply with the "undo" feature? If the opponent taps land, does a triggered ability go on the stack? Or does it just add "doesn't untap" to the land? And can you still undo the land taps after that ability resolves?

@ Boakes
it takes more cards but,
turn 1: Reveal Chancellor of the Tangle play a forest, put down 2 Llanowar Elves
Turn 2: play a land, tap both and the elves to play Vernal Bloom
Turn 3: play a land, tap 3 and both elves to play this.

To all haters of this giant: He wins games. On his own. Won me a whole FNM a couple weeks ago. How, you ask? I am currently playing Wolf Run Green and was having serious problems against WRR and the mirror-match. Then I found this little dude. Now I board three of them(mainly so I can always get one back after Beast Within). I HIGHLY recommend trying him out if you're running WRG!

@Leshrac_Nightwalker: Actually on the Vorinclex/War Toll interaction, there's another thing that matters before that. "whenever an opponent taps a land for mana..."
Those lands are tapped by War Toll, not the opponent.

I have to say, I do really like the idea of green manipulating other players' mana. I hope R&D explores that idea in the future.

@Boakes2047 I know how to get 9 mana on turn 2, but it requires a very specific combo of 7 cards, so no Vorinclex without drawing it. That said, here is the combo:
turn 1: Have Chancellor of the Tangle, play forest, sol ring, harrow, get 2 forests, use one to wild growth on other forest, then tap that forest for 2 Arbor Elves. Probably not easy to get, but it works, because next turn you get 6 mana from the wild growth alone.

This reminds me of Consecrated Sphinx. It makes sure you are always ahead of your opponents with mana generation.

@chetoos You're aiming way too low...
Turn 1: Play a Mox and a Black Lotus, Break them for 4x Candelabra of Tawnos. Play a Tolarian Academy and tap and untap it 4 times.
Turn 1; 21 Mana... no cards in hand... but who cares. :P
