Kami of Transience

Creature — Spirit1 generic manaGreen mana

Enchantress payoffs have historically been card-draw engines: play an enchantment, refill your hand, chain into more. This one takes the same trigger and points it at the board instead. Every enchantment you cast grows the body, so the reward for building an enchantment-dense deck stops being purely attritional and becomes a clock: a 2/2 with trample that swells past blockers as your permanents pile up. The back half is the part worth studying. Rather than gate recursion behind a mana cost or a graveyard condition it controls itself, the card asks the rest of the deck to do the work: whenever an enchantment leaves the battlefield for your graveyard, it lets you buy the Spirit back at end step. That clause quietly rewards aura decks, sacrifice-fueled enchantment shells, and anything running fragile enchantments that were going to die anyway, turning their deaths into a resilience loop. Trample is not decoration here; it is what makes the counters matter, ensuring the accumulated mass converts to damage instead of stalling against a single chump. The design sits at the intersection of two green archetypes that rarely shared a card, the enchantress and the recursive threat, and it belongs to both without fully being either. Cheap and easy to overlook, but the deck it wants to be in is one where enchantments are entering and dying every turn, and in that deck it never really goes away.
