Woodcaller Automaton
Artifact Creature — Construct
Prototype — 3/3 (You may cast this spell with different mana cost, color, and size. It keeps its abilities and types.)
When this creature enters, if you cast it, untap target land you control. It becomes a Treefolk creature with haste and base power and toughness equal to this creature's power and toughness. It's still a land.

Woodcaller Automaton puts a meaningful body on the board and generates mana or card advantage tied to your land count — the kind of effect that scales into the late game. Seven mana is a real ask, but in Commander decks that care about lands hitting the battlefield, the payoff is proportionate to the investment.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Woodcaller Automaton is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but Commander is the only format where it has a realistic home. Seven mana is disqualifying in competitive Constructed — Modern and Legacy run too lean and too fast for this to see play outside of a meme list. In Commander, land-matters and artifact-matters strategies are exactly where Woodcaller Automaton earns its slot, particularly in green-heavy decks that can ramp into it and exploit the triggered ability repeatedly.
