It'll be Llanowar Elf, a 2 mana 1/1 that taps for a green mana.

Can’t wait for them to piss people off by riffing off of better cards and nerfing them into the ground

Firetongue Kavu, 4 mana 2/1 that deals 2 damage to a creature when it enters the battlefield.

Target creature an opponent controls, can’t have downsides on an empty board :colbert:

Also Modern challenge decklists are up:

Yes, it's surprisingly good in topdeck wars when both players have fetch shocked etc themselves down to like 6 life and also have swamps

Yeah a few times. At the point at which it becomes castable it's often a non trivial threat in Shadow mirrors that dodges most of the played removal.

From the small sample I've seen, mostly streams, generally the elf has looked more impressive.

This is a weird as hell sentence structure, but: Street Wraith is more like Force of WIll than Simian Spirit Guide. You're not really including it in your deck to cast it, but if you can, it's actually a real card.

Tough to say. I expect that it should follow snap casters small fall then rebound from mm17. If you play chalice at all, you normally play a playset. This will be the cards 3rd printing though. Its the first printing with a hallow stamp and considering that this card is highly counterfeited these days, I have noticed these types of printings sometimes end up being more expensive than their older printings especially if the art is the same.
