About Shaman of Forgotten Ways

A deck focused on creature spells and ramping into powerful creatures would benefit from Shaman of Forgotten Ways, especially in a green-heavy deck with high-power creatures to enable its formidable ability. While Shaman of Forgotten Ways can be a strong mana accelerator and life total manipulator, there are potentially better options like Birds of Paradise or Noble Hierarch for mana ramp, and Craterhoof Behemoth for a game-ending creature finisher. Whether Shaman of Forgotten Ways should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, but it could be a solid inclusion in the right build.
