So here's another design I came up with in the card creation challenge. What are your thoughts?

Seems like a good standard finisher in a midrange shell. I wouldn’t even necessarily play other land-specific cards, just hope I got my land drops every turn.

Probably a mana dork to ramp up to a nice 4 mana walker or 3 drop and this guy. Seems sweet.

Since it lets each player populate, I could see it being 4cmc or even 3cmc to make it a more aggressive commander while still being fair.

4/4 isn't usual bear token stats. I would change the creature type of both the card and the token to beast. (There is one card, Bear's Companion that makes 4/4 bears. I also realize that you might be wanting bear synergies. I just feel changing both things to beast would be better design.) Other than that, I like the design a lot. Unlike others, I think keeping it at 5 is preferable.

Daveslab2022: Thank you. I have been worried that it's too powerful. I'm glad I did a good job with this. Your plan for the card seems fine.

DeinoStinkus: That's great to hear.

RiotRunner789: Thanks for your input on that. Having this card perfectly pass the vanilla test seems too strong imo. In a deck you play it in, you'll propably have multiple cards producing big tokens, so more often that not, you'll come out ahead when pupolating.

Gidgetimer: I actually considered making the tokens beasts, but it seemed weird to me. Bear's componanion's tokens are the reason I felt confidant making them bears. How about making the tokens treefolk to reinforce the card's title?

If beast feels weird to you stick with bear. It isn't a bad choice, I just thought beast was better.

DeinoStinkus: Please elaborate.

DeinoStinkus: So the wheel is starting after the gap, correct?

DeinoStinkus: I'm pretty sure both ways give the same result every time.
