Augur of Autumn
Green ramps and grows but does not draw, so its card-advantage engines have always worked by converting future draws into board presence rather than routing them through the hand. This 2/3 druid is a tidy version of that trick: it lets you peek at your next card at all times and drop lands directly off your library, low-variance smoothing that green historically paid full freight for on cards like Oracle of Mul Daya. Coven is the escalation. Once your battlefield holds a spread of creatures whose powers all differ, you can cast creature spells straight off the top, so a board that already looks wide begins refilling its own front line without spending a card. What lifts this above a plain value dork is that its two halves ask for opposite things and both get paid: the passive land-play floor rewards a clean curve and unremarkable sequencing, while the coven condition demands a living, varied board, exactly the state go-wide and aggressive shells want to occupy anyway. The condition that scans like a restriction is really a bill those decks were already settling; the stronger mode arrives as a byproduct of the position they were trying to reach, not a hoop bolted onto it. The floor stays live no matter what; the ceiling shows up on top, and only when you were already ahead.
