Dryad Arbor, Land creature — forest dryad, designed by Eric Fortune first released in May, 2020 in the set Future Sight and was printed exactly in 6 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's a key card in 6 combos.
Dryad Arbor is a versatile card that can benefit decks looking to ramp up their mana production quickly, especially in strategies that focus on green mana. While it can be vulnerable to removal due to being a land creature, its ability to tap for green mana immediately upon entering the battlefield can be advantageous. However, there are other cards like Llanowar Elves or Elvish Mystic that might provide a more consistent mana ramp without the risk of losing a land. Whether Dryad Arbor should see play depends on the specific needs and strategy of the deck, but it can be a valuable addition in certain scenarios.

Dryad Arbor is played as a land. It doesn’t use the stack, it’s not a spell, it can’t be responded to, it has no mana cost, and it counts as your land play for the turn.

Forest is a land type and Dryad is a creature type.

If a Dryad Arbor gains flash, or you have the ability to play Dryad Arbor as though it had flash (due to Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir or Scout’s Warning, for example), you can ignore the normal timing rules for when during your turn you can play a land, but not any other restrictions. You can’t play Dryad Arbor during another player’s turn, and you can’t play Dryad Arbor if you don’t have any land plays remaining.

Although originally printed with a characteristic-defining ability that defined its color, this card now has a color indicator. This color indicator can’t be affected by text-changing effects (such as the one created by Crystal Spray), although color-changing effects can still overwrite it.

If Dryad Arbor is changed into another basic land type (such as by Sea’s Claim), it continues to be a creature and a Dryad.
