This card completes a four day tribute to the
wildest combo deck ever, the Pros-Bloom deck.
Like Squandered Resources, Natural Balance is a
card that Pros-Bloom really cannot win without
even though this card is never mentioned as
highly as Prosperity or Cadaverous Bloom. This
card ALMOST made it on its own in limited where
it was used to help three and four color decks.
Not very good. This card never really made the
cut in constructed outside of the Pros-Bloom
deck. I can't imagine what someone would use
this card for.
CONSTRUCTED: 1.5
CASUAL: 2.0

Old School....whatever. Most of these old school
picks are mostly irrelevant to today's players.

What are the odds that you won't have to
sacrifice any lands when you play this? Well, it
costs four mana. So you're not actually getting
any lands yourself unless you're tapping out for
it, or using Llanowar Elves. And if you're
powering this out on Turn Three, what are you
giving your opponent? I suppose a Green Weenie
deck that can run on five lands might like this
once they've gained board control and want to
stop their opponent's Dragons and such from
ruining the fun, or maybe a Crucible of Worlds
deck that never has enough cards in hand for
Thoughts of Ruin, but otherwise it just isn't
worth the effort.
