Sandsteppe Mastodon, Creature — elephant, designed by Kev Walker first released in Jun, 2002 in the set Magic Online Promos and was printed exactly in 4 different ways. It's a key card in 2 combos.
A deck focused on +1/+1 counters and creature buffing would benefit from including Sandsteppe Mastodon, as it provides a significant boost to a creature upon entering the battlefield. However, there are potentially better cards for similar effects, such as Verdurous Gearhulk, which not only buffs a creature but also distributes counters among multiple creatures. Whether Sandsteppe Mastodon should see play depends on the specific strategy and synergy of the deck, as there may be more efficient options available.

Bolster itself doesn’t target any creature, though some spells and abilities that bolster may have other effects that target creatures. For example, you could put counters on a creature with protection from white with Abzan Skycaptain’s bolster ability.
