They said the RG theme was lands in graveyard so Windgrace decks will be getting some love.

Solid card, even though the elf druid himself looks like he's probably hitting some shrooms at a Phish show while he tries to sell you some poorly made burlap clothing.

Can you name all of the creature types with at least 20 cards? Try my Sporcle Quiz! Last Updated: 6/29/20 (Core Set 2021).

What else besides hitting shrooms would a druid be doing? Much flavor!
A very abusable Harrow with flicker effects. Astral Drift makes this look interesting for sure.
I don't get the excitement. Harrow gets you untapped lands. Is a 1/1 body worth having the lands enter tapped?
Harrow is also catastrophically bad against counter magic, this is not.
This. When Invasion was Standard-legal, I remember a match against my brother's friend in the top 8 of a fairly big tournament. He was playing a domain control deck, and he desperately needed to hit more of his colors to stay in the game. Four turns in a row, he cast Harrow, and I Memory Lapsed it each time. Finally, he says at least you're out of Memory Lapses. He casts it, I cast Counterspell. Everyone watching our game groaned in pain, lol. They all felt the hurt he felt trying to cast harrow against a control deck. Harrow is risky because it makes mono Blue land destruction a deck.

Yes, this. I will play this any day over Harrow if only because you don't have to sac before you know if it's going to resolve. The fact that it's more recurable through blink or reanimation is nice, the fact that it gives a chump blocker is nice, the fact that it has a relevant creature type is nice, but it's mostly the fact that you're not down a land if it gets countered.
I'm still not sure whether I like this more than Harrow, at least for commander. True, Harrow is vulnerable to counter magic, but its instant speed lets you play around that very well, and getting the lands to come in untapped can be a huge boon. Of course this creature still has its place in landfall/land matter decks like Lord Windgrace, Tatyova, Benthic Druid and The Gitrog Monster. Muldrotha, the Gravetide will love this being a creature.
