If I wanted to do a real data set, I'd have to institute some sort of regimen, same time of day, sobriety level, etc. I'm far too lazy for that, but it is odd to see  Wed-Thu-Fri decreasing in time.

Kibler: "on the list"?
Lauren-: Kibs, let me explain, you are "not" on the list ... but it would be "some fun" if you were
Kibler: what is "the list"?
Lauren-: surely you men have a list?
Kibler: i have many lists.
Kibler: most of them start with "4 llanowar elf"









About a month ago, right after WotC posted their answers to the designer test, I called this card being included in the upcoming Dominaria set. Elvish Mystic has replaced these of late, since Llanowar Forest is a plane-specific site. But Dominaria is that plane. I'm pretty good with Core Set predictions (when Slivers were spoiled for M14, I called Mutavault). WotC also accidentally spoiled the card notes for the set a month early, revealing many of the new cards. Lots of Legends and "Legends matter" cards. There will be much to talk about, but this might actually be the card with the most impact. The only reason this card was even on the list is because they're changing templating, so it's just T: Add G. They're also replacing "he or she" and their adjuncts with the now-acceptable "they." (In other futurism, I had already done this in my custom set almost two years ago.)

One-drop acceleration has not really existed since Innistrad. The first Innistrad! Elvish Mystic was last legal in 2015! There will be many new players who never played in a world with this ability. Lightning Bolt was just a good burn spell; an Elf can change a whole format.
