Choose one —

• Draw cards equal to the greatest power among non-Human creatures you control.

• Non-Human creatures you control get +3/+3 until end of turn.

Why is this card good?

Why it's good: This is one of green's premier card-draw spells, refilling your hand off a single fatty. At instant speed, you can hold up mana, respond to a board wipe by drawing 5-8 cards, or end-of-turn cast it before untapping. Drawing your library's worth of cards for five mana is exactly the payoff big-green decks crave. Who wants it: Any deck running large non-Human creatures—stompy ramp, dinosaurs, dragons, hydras, beasts, Voltron commanders like Ghalta or Vorinclex. The flexibility matters: the +3/+3 mode can be a surprise finisher in token-go-wide decks or push lethal commander damage when you don't need cards. When NOT to play it: Human-tribal decks obviously don't qualify, and small-creature aristocrats or spellslinger builds rarely have a big enough body to make the draw worthwhile. If your best non-Human creature is a 2/2, you're paying five mana to draw two—skip it for [[Beast Whisperer]] or [[Guardian Project]] instead. Effectively a green [[Blue Sun's Zenith] for the beatdown crowd.
