Warm Welcome

Green's card selection has traditionally arrived at sorcery speed and left nothing behind: you dig, you keep, you pass. This one rewrites both halves of that bargain. It digs five deep, pulls the creature you need, and deposits a 1/1 Citizen on the board while it does so, all at a moment when your opponent expects you to be tapped out for their turn. The selection is deliberately fenced to creatures only, and that restriction is what buys the flexibility back: you cannot pull the removal or the land you wanted, so the effect asks for a creature-dense shell where the dig rarely comes up empty. The Citizen token is the floor. Even a whiffed dig (five noncreatures, nothing worth taking) still advances the board and feeds anything that counts bodies: sacrifice fodder, go-wide payoffs, token-matters triggers. That pairing of filtering plus a permanent moves the card off the axis of a straight draw spell; you accept a small tax on raw selection quality in exchange for a guaranteed presence, cast at a window that keeps your mana honest for interaction. A green-white token or go-wide deck is the obvious home, where the Citizen is not a consolation prize but part of the payout, and the instant timing means holding up the effect never costs you the tempo of a proactive turn.
