Street Savvy

Enchantment — AuraGreen mana

Landwalk is among the rare evasion mechanics with no native counterplay: a defender cannot block a creature it is simply not allowed to block, so islandwalk, swampwalk, and forestwalk attackers cut through ground stalls untouched. This Aura answers that asymmetry the clean way. Rather than kill the attacker, it grants the enchanted creature permission to block through landwalk, and pairs that permission with +0/+2 so the blocker actually survives the swing it was finally allowed to make. The toughness bump is also what keeps the card from being a pure blank when the opposing board has no landwalk to negate: an extra two toughness on a blocker is never nothing, even if it is rarely the reason you ran the card. It belongs to a long line of single-color landwalk countermeasures, effects that grant "can block as though it didn't have evasion," which have filled the same structural role across eras: too conditional to be a maindeck fixture, too specific and too cheap to forget exists. One green mana is the floor for an Aura, and that is precisely the right price for a hoser this narrow. The reward for being so situational is being nearly free; the design accepts that it does almost nothing against most boards in exchange for cleanly closing the one hole landwalk otherwise opens.
