Rationale
7cmc 9/9 trample legendary creature. ETB/triggered: draws when targeted by opponent's spell or ability. Discard outlet enables land recursion from graveyard (tapped). Mid-range finisher with built-in card advantage in targeted-meta shells and dedicated lands-matter decks. Color-locked (double green) and removal-magnet as a large unprotected creature. Pip-heavy mana base limits early plays.
