How do you feel about Sword of the Animist? How many basics do most legacy decks run these days? This sword seems like it's way more niche than the other ones.
Less stats, no protections, lands enter tapped, no option to blink your stuff. So it's pretty terrible. Being one mana cheaper (which might not even matter with SFM) and triggering on attack don't compensate for the lack of stuff SoHH provides.
D&T runs like 10+ basics, for example.

Im just imagining a curve like
Turn 1 mother
Turn 2 thalia
Turn 3 sfm
Turn 4 activate sfm equip to thalia attack
In what universe is the GW sword the one that you actually want here
Pro W is also kind of awkward because now your opp can bolt the thalia and you can't even protect with mother
To me Fire/Ice feels like it would be better almost always
I’m with Kombatkiwi on prismatic.
lots of Bant miracles Players are playing wilt. The desire for a flexible answer that is never dead is there. I’m certain it will replace wilt and return to nature in those decks at least. Against moon Stompy, delver, and lands (if you have flying blockers) it is significantly better. In maverick and death and taxes there is additional Removal in the sideboard which is usually path to exile. In several matchups (ur delver, mirror, moon stompy) not ramping the opponent and the flexibility of it would make it compare favourably.
I also think that it could replace 3feri in the flexible answer Maindeck role. The passive is nice vs combo or control but vs delver I would rather have more 1 mana removal
Oh crap lol Ritual of Subdual.
Yorion D&T is the most likely candidate, since it should run a high number of ETB creatures anyway and the ramp is relevant to get to Yorion faster. 3/60 or 4/80 comes out roughly the same. They're already running SoFaF, so it could be easily swapped for the #4 equipment as the pro-green sword or become equipment #5 for full color coverage, depending on how things play out.
Glad to see the cycling stuff. Wonder if we'll get an updated lightning rift for Modern now. Would be super dope if so, there are definitely the tools to build around if we got a way to deal with PW's and win without combat finally. Probably RWU colors, or WURG.
Garth One-Eye has been printed; methinks we'll finally see Jodah, Archmage Eternal. They're digging deep on the lore names.
Sorry to tell you
The precident is BS, they made Llanowar Elf tokens for Llanowar Mentor, but whatever
Well, he is technically right, none of those have a mana cost, which each of thing spells Grath makes would have since they are being cast.
It's still not a great excuse though.
