It's a very fungal morning, it seems. All the Saproling cards are a great throwback to the Burst days, and this trick is exceptional. With lords out, they can take out attackers. With a Slimefoot out, they can chump and Blood Tithe. With the Saproling Enchantment, you'll get at least a bit of life and a card. There's a lot of ways to get flexible value out of those little stinkers.

: )
Chips are tokens and Saprofitas are Saprolings, but I guess everyone could figure that out, lol.

Loving this saproling day, but... is this card good enough? scatter the seeds wasn't sadly..
Scatter the Seeds saw plenty of play and was recently bonkers in Modern Masters draft when it was reprinted.
Sorry, had to specify. I was talking about commander
It actually can be good in Commander, just because, you know, all convoke cards can be free (It's basically a "fixed" affinity for creatures.), and it has synergy with a lot of Commander staples: Aura Shards, Mentor of the Meek, Cathars' Crusade, Purphoros, God of the Forge, and of course the four "double your tokens" cards...
The real problem is, there are a lot of "create three dudes" spells out there: Marath, Rith, Saskia, or Tana and _insert white partner_ would just prefer Rith's Charm, and Triplicate Spirits and Sram's Expertise also exist in white; late-game, we can add Spectral Procession (which becomes a lot better if you have Cryptolith Rite or Earthcraft and suddenly convoke is obsolete). Black has Stir the Sands, which can also just be a Scathe Zombies cantrip (and yeah, "can't be countered") if you prefer. Green itself has Predator's Howl, and, seriously, if your token deck doesn't use sac outlets, you're doing it wrong.

Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!
