About Leaf-Crowned Elder
Leaf-Crowned Elder, Creature — treefolk shaman, designed by Wayne Reynolds first released in Feb, 2008 in the set Morningtide and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 122.87.
A deck focused on tribal synergy, particularly with treefolk or shaman creatures, would benefit from including Leaf-Crowned Elder due to its Kinship ability that allows for free creature spells. While it can be a strong inclusion in such decks, other cards like Elvish Piper or Quicksilver Amulet may offer more consistent and immediate benefits in terms of cheating creatures into play, making them potentially better options depending on the deck's strategy and focus.
