Topiary Stomper: City-Sized Gardener
Topiary Stomper arrives as a deliberate late-game threat that rewards steady land development. The card gives you a 4/4 vigilance body for {1}{G}{G} and a helpful enter the battlefield effect that tutors a basic land onto the battlefield tapped, smoothing your mana while advancing board presence. Experienced players will recognize the trade off: it accelerates your land count but only becomes an attacking or blocking menace once you actually control seven or more lands.
In play the Stomper reads like a utility finisher. It holds the line with vigilance and plugs mana gaps by finding a basic land, so it pairs cleanly with ramp and landfall synergies. The restriction that it cannot attack or block until you have seven lands keeps deckbuilding honest; build to reach that threshold and the Topiary Stomper turns from a helpful tutor into a reliable, trampling landmark on the battlefield. Add it to decks that prize late game inevitability and predictable value.
