Lys Alana Huntmaster 2007s Lorwyn set introduced a number of notable Elf cards, including this four-mana 3/3 common Elf Warrior with a tremendous triggered ability: whenever you cast an Elf Spell, create a 1/1 green Elf Warrior creature token
Sure they can pay the Ward cost, but then theyre effectively Time Walking themselves to kill your creature
If you are lucky enough to start out in a casual group that had a whole range of control, midrange, aggro, and combo decks to learn from, then that's a great start
I would have preferred it at 5 mana CMC, and the card draw also is one more mana than I want it to
