Rootcaller Warden
Avenger of Zendikar is a game plan in a single body. When it resolves you instantly populate the board with a swarm of 0/1 Plant tokens equal to your land count, and its Landfall trigger turns incremental land drops into global growth for those tokens. In multiplayer Commander games this card stabilizes board presence while forcing opponents to answer multiple threats rather than one big creature.
Play it as the backbone of a token or landfall deck. The initial token flood pairs well with anthem effects and sacrifice outlets while the Landfall ability scales with each landfall, turning routine plays into incremental aggression. From a practical perspective this card rewards sequencing and deck construction that prioritizes reliable land drops and token synergies.
