Chorus of the Conclave
Legendary Creature — Dryad
Forestwalk (This creature can't be blocked as long as defending player controls a Forest.)
As an additional cost to cast creature spells, you may pay any amount of mana. If you do, that creature enters with that many additional +1/+1 counters on it.

Chorus of the Conclave lets every land you play enter with a +1/+1 counter on a creature of your choice — a continuous, mana-free stat boost that compounds fast in creature-heavy green-white shells. The cost is eight mana and legendary status, so it lives in the late game, but commanders like Chulane, Teller of Tales that spike land drops and bounce creatures turn those counters into an engine rather than a bonus.

Chorus of the Conclave is a Commander card through and through — eight mana is too slow for Legacy, Modern, or Vintage, where the game ends before the effect matters. In Commander, the legend rule means you can only run it as a singleton, but that's exactly where it belongs: 40-life games go long enough that a resolved Chorus reshapes the board state over several turns. Oathbreaker is legal but even more hostile to eight-mana permanents given the smaller deck size and faster closes.

Current price
$0.46 bulk tier
At $0.46, Chorus of the Conclave sits firmly in bulk territory — easy to pick up without budget concern and unlikely to spike absent a reprint or sudden combo breakout. The price reflects its narrow play pattern more than its ceiling; if a new landfall or counter commander pushes it into high-inclusion shells, even a modest bump is possible, but buy it for the deck, not the spec.
