Old-Growth Troll
Creature — Troll Warrior
Trample
When Old-Growth Troll dies, if it was a creature, return it to the battlefield. It's an Aura enchantment with enchant Forest you control and "Enchanted Forest has '
: Add 
' and '
, , Sacrifice this land: Create a tapped 4/4 green Troll Warrior creature token with trample.'"

Old-Growth Troll hits for 4 trample on turn two in a mono-green shell, and when it dies it converts into a land that makes a 4/4 trampler — removal punishes the opponent less than usual. The floor is a ramp piece; the ceiling is a recursive beater that demands an answer twice.

Modern is where Old-Growth Troll sees real competitive play, slotting into mono-green Stompy and Tron variants as a high-pressure two-drop that scales past the early game. In Pioneer the competition at two mana is stiffer, but it still earns a spot in aggressive green lists that want bodies that don't fold to a single removal spell. Commander is honest value in mono-green or Forests-matter builds — Yedora, Grave Gardener and Azusa, Lost but Seeking strategies appreciate both the threat and the land-recycling clause. Formats demanding Forest basics are the prerequisite; splash-heavy decks elsewhere won't turn Old-Growth Troll on.
