Rating Scale

5.0: Unconditional first pick, brings an almost game-winning advantage
4.5: Unconditional first pick if you are in the right colors, brings a huge advantage
4.0: Worth a first pick, great synergy with the color pair’s theme, can be the deciding card to splash/switch colors or to move into the colors
3.5: Top uncommon/common of the set and other cards of sufficient power, good synergy with the color pair’s theme, a key card for moving into the colors
3.0: An important card for the color pair’s theme, and other above-average cards; you will want it in your final deck
2.5: Average, usually a decent curve filler
2.0 to 1.0: Below average, generally not played, can be used as filler when necessary but not in excess. A 2.0 can also be the rating for a powerful sideboard card.
0.5 to 0.0: Unplayable, basically don’t play it, it will only help you lose

Ratings

Rating: 3.0
Comment: Deathtouch guarantees at least a one-for-one trade on offense and defense, and protects your planeswalker well. One of the rare cards in mono-green that can empower Jace.

Rating: 2.5
Comment: One card that can be used twice also counts as gaining card advantage. A 4/4 trampler for four mana is a perfectly acceptable curve. Trample is important for planeswalker offense and defense in this set, since it forces the opponent to commit bigger or more creatures to block.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: At worst it’s a 3/3 vigilance creature that can keep protecting your planeswalker after attacking. And this set has quite a few troublesome artifacts and enchantments to deal with, so if you also get to draw cards, even better.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: As usual, deathtouch guarantees a one-for-one trade. If cast on time early, there’s a high chance it gains you a land.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: The first spell in MTG to deal damage using a planeswalker, though in most cases the toughness of creatures on the board should be higher than the planeswalker’s loyalty. Instant speed plus the ability to target the opponent’s planeswalker makes it a very handy removal spell.

Rating: 2.0
Comment: The range of targets is so small that this card is destined to be a sideboard card. Please note that it can only target the opponent’s red and white permanents; permanents of other colors can’t even be targeted.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: The green version of Black Market (some people call this card Flower Market, which is pretty funny). After just a few rounds of creature combat trades, you can start jumping ahead on mana in large amounts. The mana produced can only be used during the precombat main phase.

Rating: 2.5
Comment: In green-white it is a bit stronger thanks to the theme bonus; without synergy, it is an unremarkable three-mana mana guy.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: One card that provides a large amount of mana. Although the mana produced can’t be used to cast spells from your hand, it can be used to pay for activated abilities, pay for prepare spells, or cast cards exiled by Blazing Crescendo.

Rating: 4.0
Comment: The color requirements are too heavy for the rating to go higher, though this set’s Heartwood token theme can ease the pressure of those requirements a little. The body is tremendous, and the triggered ability can find any land, not limited to basics.

Rating: 3.5
Comment: There aren’t actually many artifacts in this set for it to eat. Rather than directly sacrificing Heartwood tokens to attack with haste, I think keeping artifacts and mana for protection is stronger.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: Garruk’s axe. The power boost is large, letting small creatures trade up when attacking; deathtouch and trample are both very practical abilities. If you equip two axes, choosing trample on one and deathtouch on the other, the opponent will get a splitting headache (in the physical sense).

Rating: 3.0
Comment: This set has a lot of planeswalkers, so its growth is not to be underestimated. In the late game it is also a very strong mana sink, converting excess mana into card resources while continuing to grow its body.

Rating: 0.0
Comment: The green version of Omniscience, but it can only cast spells with mana value less than or equal to your number of creatures. The restriction is too heavy. Even if you really survive to eight mana, you may still be unable to cast the spells in your hand. Super hard to use.

Rating: 2.5
Comment: The green version of Ensoul Artifact. This set doesn’t have as many artifacts and enchantments as you’d imagine, so there’s a risk of it getting stuck in your hand. Putting it on a Heartwood token just costs 5 mana for a 5/5 vanilla creature, nothing particularly impressive. Being able to return to hand from the graveyard and keep turning artifacts and enchantments on the battlefield into creatures should be fairly good in the late game. There’s also another use: turn the opponent’s noncreature artifact or enchantment into a creature, then remove it with creature removal (though I don’t know when you’d use that trick).

Rating: 3.0
Comment: Picking back up the cards you surveilled away early, or simply recovering a bomb the opponent removed, are both great options. Simply using it to trigger the green-white lifegain payoffs is no loss either. If there are no permanent cards in your graveyard it can’t be cast with no effect, so take note.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: The green version of Solemn Simulacrum. Jumping ahead on mana when it enters is already no loss, and after it dies it can draw a card back, a very good three-mana curve play.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: Besides finding the card you’ll use next at instant speed, the mill can work with blue-black threshold cards, and the life gain can work with green-white lifegain cards. A flexible card with build-around versatility.

Rating: 2.5
Comment: A very good curve filler; using the ability to remove the opponent’s flying creatures lets you avoid having it countered as a spell.

Rating: 2.5
Comment: The former king is back. This set has quite a few surveil and mill spells, so growing to 4/5 shouldn’t be hard.
Also, Tarmogoyf checks the card types in all players’ graveyards! Please double-check when calculating its power and toughness. If there is no instant in the graveyards and the opponent casts No Admittance targeting a 2/3 Tarmogoyf, Tarmogoyf won’t die! For the detailed rules, see this article.

Rating: 2.0
Comment: A run-of-the-mill combat trick.

Rating: 4.5
Comment: The Octopus version of Verdant Force. Not only does it make a 3/3 on your own upkeep, it also does so on the opponent’s turn. If it can’t be removed in time, you’ll face a huge board and mana advantage. Incidentally, the token counts as a land, so it can dodge some removal spells (such as Memory Trap, Plan for All Outcomes, etc.).

Rating: 3.0
Comment: A 5/7 body for six mana is plenty, and basic land cycling is always popular in Limited.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: The body is serviceable, and the ward ability is very annoying. In the late game, with mana held up, the opponent will have a hard time blocking it: block with too few and they lose creatures for free; block with too many and the activated pump ability lets it trade up.

Rating: 3.5
Comment: Flash it in on the opponent’s turn, and if you don’t cast a spell on your main turn it immediately grows to 6/6, and with the activated ability it becomes 7/7. White-green has many cards that place +1/+1 counters, so the synergy is excellent.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: A very important card in green-based multicolor decks. One card can help you fill in the other colors, and it also has some board-trading ability.

Rating: 4.5
Comment: It comes with a built-in card draw ability, which is super strong; entering as a 4/4 already draws the card back, two extra mana each turn lets you cast late-game big creatures early, and you can even use its ultimate right when it enters to give the opponent a beating.

Rating: 4.0
Comment: As long as you cast a creature with power four on turn four, it comes down on time on turn five, which is fairly easy to achieve.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: Four mana gets you 5/5 worth of stats in total; although both creatures are on the small side, it is acceptable. At end of turn, besides resetting Mowu, it also resets the Heartwood token.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: Producing any color is a big plus. If you can produce four or more mana, you can even combine with Hapatra, the Desert Frost to produce infinite mana, which is cool.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: A good body that can trade up, and in the late game you can activate the ability at instant speed to pick up the lands you surveilled or milled away, much stronger than an ordinary curve filler.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: Red, blue and white all have enchantment-type removal, so the value of reliably finding your removal is high.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: It has hexproof until combat damage is dealt, guaranteeing that it will land a hit or stop a creature; reach plus vigilance is a great defensive combination.

Rating: 4.0
Comment: A very high growth rate. White-green has plenty of lifegain sources, and you only need to gain life two or three times to take on the whole world.

Rating: 2.5
Comment: The floor is an Explore that gives an extra Jace and gains one life; the life gain and mana jump can support the green-white and red-green themes respectively.

Rating: 3.0
Comment: A 4/4 trampler for five mana is slightly slow, but still within the acceptable range. If the board is already strong, you can also split the card draw over two turns.

Rating: 2.5
Comment: It can be seen as a two-mana sorcery fight. The activated ability’s cost is too high, but it is still a removal spell, and you should main deck it when you need to.
