A third Bristly Bill, Spine Sower / Scythecat Cub for Nadu. Like Bill / Cub, this is pretty strong on its own as an evasive beater that can contest monarch / initiative. A fetchland gives you potential +4 power on the board assuming you have another 1 powered creature. Later in the game this can just straight up kill anybody.
I feel this card is balanced well for constructed formats where players are expected to have play sets of fetches. I feel this card would be more balanced in formats without fetches and players have to jump a few hoops to get there OR the format naturally has 2+ set of fetches/ landscapes.
I'm not sure how I feel about this many landfall cards that performs well if folks happen to have 3+ fetches
As a standalone, a 2-cost flier that swings in for 3 in the early game and 6 later on is a good rate. But that's not really the kind of thing I'm looking for when I'm playing a lands matter deck. With Bill / Scythecat, I'm getting paid off for dropping 2+ lands in a turn. But with Imago, it's unlikely for even the second landfall trigger to be impactful. I guess it's fine if you want more redundancy with Nadu, but I'd be hard pressed to give up a Simic slot for that reason.
Had some pretty crazy Genemorph Imago lines piloting a Nadu deck today. Would highly recommend Imago + Shuko if you're looking to make Nadu as consistent as possible.
