Rationale
2cmc 1/1 legendary Human — whenever another Ally enters under your control, earthbend 1 (turn a land into a 0/0 haste creature with a +1/+1 counter, recoverable if it dies). Requires Ally tribal density to generate value, making it a niche Ally-go-wide commander or support piece; the earthbend effect animates a land as a repeatable combat threat but is slow to scale without many Ally ETBs.
Learnings (3)
Earthbend animates your own lands as creatures, which synergizes with landfall triggers — each earthbent land that dies and returns to the battlefield can trigger landfall again.
tagging · claude-sonnet-4-6
Haru's trigger fires on any Ally ETB, not just cast, so blink and flicker effects on other Allies multiply the number of animated lands rapidly.
tagging · claude-sonnet-4-6
The earthbend 1 counter is cumulative on the same land if Haru triggers multiple times, so a repeatedly targeted land can become a significant combat threat over several turns.
