Sylvan Anthem

Acornelia Squirrel Criteria

Un-question, for Acornelia, does she count squirrel shaped art? For example Sylvan Anthem has a squireel shaped leaf

It has to be an actual Squirrel. If a Shapeshifter/Changeling, it has to currently be in the shape of Squirrel.

Colorshifting Sylvan Anthem

Could White get a colorshifted Sylvan Anthem?

I think so.

White Version of Sylvan Anthem

A White version of Sylvan Anthem could have the same Scry etb trigger and the same mana value?

It can have all the effects. Mana value isn’t my area of expertise. My gut is most likely, yes.

White Sylvan Anthem Enchantment

Mark, about Sylvan Anthem: a White version of this enchantment with the same stats would be perfectly in-pie or a bend?

Power level is not my forte, so I’m not sure of cost. It can do both things in color pie for white. I do want to say one other thing about Sylvan Anthem. I’ve been talking a lot about whether its effects are in color pie or not. (They are.) There is another conversation about rate - is it too strong given where the color sits in the color pie for that effect.? The Council of Colors, for example, did think it was too strong, but the Council sets color pie (what colors can do), not rate (how powerful it is for its cost). I do think if we had the card to do over again, either it’s cost or effect would be tweaked.

Powerful Anthems in White

is white going to get anthems as powerful as Sylvan Anthem anytime soon? With it being the color and of lords.

A green enchantment making all green creatures get +1/+1 is not as strong as white enchantment making all white creatures get +1/+1. White’s creature strength is its width (having a lot of small creatures) while green’s is its height (getting out a few big creatures). I know on surface they look similar, but how they interact with their color’s core strengths is different.

Anthem's Primary in Green

Is Sylvan Anthem being better than Honor of the Pure a sign that anthems are moving to primary in green?

No.
