**** Kodama’s Reach – Kodama’s Reach Is Essentially Cultivate and Vise Versa

A good formula that you may consider as far as mana acceleration is concerned is that paying 3 mana should at least give acceleration equal to two mana. Thus, this card makes the mark, and there are a few others like Cultivate, Fyndhorn Elder, and Joraga Treespeaker that all do the trick. Thus, I would rate all these cards highly. One added advantage to this card is that you can get a double landfall, which works excellent with Baloth Woodcrusher. Thus, in my opinion there are better choices than cards such as Quirion Elves, Wirewood Elf, and Leaf Guilder, all of which cost 2 mana for a return of 1 mana as an activated ability. If it is mana you want, go with Joraga Treespeaker, Fyndhorn Elves, Llanowar Elves, this card, or Fyndhorn Elder, etc.
