Description
Identified as card number 20 in the H1R subset, this foil version of the Creature — Elf Druid brings a unique mechanical twist to the product. Designed by Chris Seaman, the card captures the whimsical nature of the set with a striking foiled finish that appeals to TCG enthusiasts. In gameplay, the Deep Forest Hermit enters the battlefield with Vanishing 3, meaning it arrives with three time counters. During each upkeep, one counter is removed until the final one disappears, at which point the creature must be sacrificed. Despite its temporary presence, the Hermit provides immediate value by creating four 1/1 green Squirrel creature tokens upon entry. These tokens gain a +1/+1 boost from the Hermit itself, allowing players to build a small, resilient army quickly. This interaction makes the card a favorite among collectors who appreciate clever mechanic combinations. The card's unique rules text and foil treatment make it a notable entry for those expanding their library. Whether used for casual play or displayed as part of a larger collection, the Deep Forest Hermit represents the creative depth of the Modern Horizons era.
