When this creature enters, look at the top four cards of your library. You may reveal a permanent card from among them and put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. Landfall — Whenever a land you control enters, this creature gets +2/+2 until end of turn.
Predicted power
Standard 24 Eng.FUsr.

Mono Green Landfall can cast it, but a 4/4 that finds only one permanent from four is far below Eddymurk Crab's impact and needs later land drops.

Best home Mono Green LandfallBand speculativeConfidence 61%

Could be wrong if Green ramp or landfall payoffs may make its permanent selection and +2/+2 triggers more relevant than the revealed context suggests.

Pioneer 12 Eng.FUsr.

Six mana for a 4/4 and one conditional permanent is too slow; even fringe five-mana threats such as Elder Gargaroth offer much stronger immediate value.

Band unplayableConfidence 72%

Could be wrong if An unshown ramp shell that specifically wants a permanent-selection creature could create a narrow home.

Modern 5 Eng.FUsr.

It has neither a cost reduction nor immediate board swing; it is dramatically less impactful than Modern's playable large creatures such as Generous Ent or Primeval Titan.

Band unplayableConfidence 82%

Could be wrong if A new efficient cheat-into-play engine could alter its casting-cost problem, though its ETB remains modest.

Legacy 3 Eng.FUsr.

A six-mana fair 4/4 with minor selection is not credible beside Legacy's highly efficient threats and engines; it lacks Murktide Regent's rate or Atraxa's payoff.

Band unplayableConfidence 87%

Could be wrong if Only a presently unknown dedicated landfall or creature-cheating shell could justify testing it.

Pauper 21 Eng.FUsr.

Elves can potentially reach six mana, but this is a weak payoff: one permanent from four and a 4/4 compares poorly with Generous Ent's immediate fixing or Avenging Hunter's initiative.

Best home ElvesBand speculativeConfidence 67%

Could be wrong if If the set adds unusually effective common landfall support, its body and selection could be a better green-ramp payoff.

Commander 31 Eng.D-Usr.

Landfall decks can use the body and permanent selection, but six mana for only one top-four hit is replaceable and well below broad value engines like Seedborn Muse.

Best home Green landfall decksBand fringeConfidence 66%

Could be wrong if A commander that repeatedly flickers creatures or rewards large temporary power could make the ETB and landfall package more attractive.

Limited 58 Eng.C+Usr.

A 4/4 that usually provides a permanent is reliable late-game value, and landfall can create strong attacks, though six mana and delayed scaling prevent premium status.

Could be wrong if Unknown format speed, fixing, removal, and green ramp density could move this substantially in either direction.

Landfall value creature

“A six-mana body with modest permanent selection and conditional combat scaling, but little immediate competitive impact.”
