While there are many, many types of Magic players, each with their own correct way to have fun, I have strong faith that players like drawing cards, gaining life, and making their opponents lose life
Many elves also provide card draw, itself a powerful synergy with their colossal mana pools
Players arent going to make the same mistake again, and therefore Three Tree City, a very similar card, is already preselling for big chunks of money
Since the land can be tapped immediately after flipping up, you end up paying three mana to get three mana
