Aftermath Analyst
Aftermath Analyst is a concise answer for graveyard centered strategies. The one green and one colorless mana investment gives you an Elf Detective that mills three cards when it enters the battlefield and then offers a late game recover option by trading itself for your lands. Practical in decks that want to stock the graveyard or cheat lands back into play, it fits well alongside self mill and landfall synergies.
Play it as a turn two piece that sets up multiple lines of play or as a sacrificial tool when you need a sudden mana rebound. The card reads like an investigation in motion; the milling gathers clues while the activated ability returns your land evidence to the table tapped. It performs best when you plan the sequence of digs and returns with precision rather than relying on luck.
