Rowen

Enchantment

Reveal the first card you draw each turn. Whenever you reveal a basic land card this way, draw a card.

Good job on the deck. I like how you used a pretty uncommon commander and made a fun deck out of it. Here are a few recommendations.

Seedguide Ash—->Verdant Haven I feel like you will find more use from Seedguide Ash then verdant haven with a blocker that can fetch 3 lands.

Blossoming Defense—->Ranger’s Guile Blossoming defense is just strictly better than Ranger’s Guile.

Nature's Wrath—->Nature’s Chosen This is more of a personal preference but Nature’s Wrath is SO oppressive on Black and Blue decks.

Rowen—->Fertile Ground Rowen is a nice card letting you get regular extra card draws especially with all of the lands in this deck.

Have fun with this deck!

Hmm that is a pretty vague request. Card draw engines come in all shapes and sizes depending on your strategy. What type of deck are you trying to build? Regardless, here are some of my favorite general ones in each color:

Black: Greed, Arguel's Blood Fast  Flip, Underworld Connections

Green: Colossal Majesty, Lifecrafter's Bestiary, Rowen, Elemental Bond

Red: Vance's Blasting Cannons  Flip, Outpost Siege, Furious Rise

Blue: Monastery Siege, Kumena's Awakening, and many, many more

White: Hahahahaha...white doesn't draw cards. Mentor of the Meek and Dawn of Hope are about it

Colorless: Staff of Nin, Book of Rass, Conqueror's Galleon  Flip, Trading Post

Moved this over to Rules Q&A For you.

Rowen does interact with Damia, Sage of Stone, and the result is as you thought; but you arrived at that conclusion using the wrong set of rules. Rowen is not an effect that modifies the number of cards you draw--modifications are replacement effects that change how many cards you draw for that draw instance.

Rowen is a triggered ability--rather than modifying how you draw cards, its ability goes on the stack and has to resolve.

Compare the language between Thought Reflection and Rowen. Thought Reflection uses "If you would . . . instead" which is the language for a replacement effect; Rowen uses "whenever" which is a signal for a triggered ability.

So, let's say your hand is empty. Here is what happens:

You'll reveal the first card you draw, if it is a land, Rowen will be triggered. You'll then draw 7 cards as part of Damia's ability resolving. Then, if the revealed card was a land and Rowen was triggered, you'll draw another card when Rowen's triggered ability resolves.

Does Rowen interact with Damia, Sage of Stone in a way that could potentially allow her to draw 8 cards if the first was a land? It seems like it works, if i understand the rules correctly.

From her gatherer page: Effects can modify the number of cards you’ll draw. For example, if you have four cards in your hand and control Thought Reflection (“If you would draw a card, draw two cards instead.”), you’ll draw six cards.

If your problem is card draw how about Rites of Flourishing and/or Rowen

Yeva, Nature's Herald and Vedalken Orrery makes this deck quite intimidating. I would cut Predatory Rampage and Living Hive. Siege Behemoth can take Thorn Elemental's place.

I am not sure what to cut for these suggestions. Pathbreaker Ibex Colossal Majesty Zendikar Resurgent Elemental Bond Kavu Lair Whisperwood Elemental Temur Sabertooth &Rowensince you are going all in on Forests.

you might consider Abundance, Into the Wilds and Rowen to give you more consistency. Also, in my version I play Boundless Realms which can get out of hand very quickly. Abundance/Rowen combo well with each other and can assure they you draw two cards, one land one nonland every turn.
