Soul's Majesty

Sorcery4 generic manaGreen mana

Green's perennial answer to the question of how a color with no native card draw refills its hand: tie the payoff to the one resource green builds reliably, which is creature power. The math is brutally simple in green's favor. Connect this to a fattie that has already survived a turn and you are looking at a draw spell that dwarfs anything blue can cast at the same cost, with no per-card ceiling beyond what your board can muster. The tension the card lives inside is the same one every green card-advantage spell has wrestled with since the mechanic first appeared: it does nothing the turn your big creature dies in response. The spell targets a creature you control, so a removal-happy opponent can shrink the yield to zero by killing the target before resolution, and a board with nothing larger than a bear leaves you paying five mana to draw two. That fragility is exactly what keeps the rate from being broken. It rewards a green player who has already won the creature-size race and punishes one casting it speculatively. Green has circled this design repeatedly, refining the conversion of power into cards across many printings, but the core trade has stayed constant: you are spending mana to cash in board presence you already earned, and the spell is only as good as the body you point it at.
