About Merfolk Branchwalker
Merfolk Branchwalker, Creature — merfolk scout, designed by Kieran Yanner first released in Sep, 2017 in the set Ixalan and was printed exactly in 2 different ways.
A deck that focuses on tempo and card advantage, such as a Merfolk tribal deck in a format like Modern or Pioneer, would benefit from including Merfolk Branchwalker. While there may be stronger cards like Silvergill Adept that provide more consistent card draw in a Merfolk deck, Merfolk Branchwalker's ability to potentially grow in size and provide card selection can still be valuable in certain situations, making it a solid inclusion in the right deck.
Rules
01/19/18
If a resolving spell or ability instructs a specific creature to explore but that creature has left the battlefield, the creature still explores. If you reveal a nonland card this way, you won’t put a +1/+1 counter on anything, but you may put the revealed card into your graveyard. Effects that trigger “whenever a creature you control explores” trigger if appropriate.
01/19/18
Once an ability that causes a creature to explore begins to resolve, no player may take any other actions until it’s done. Notably, opponents can’t try to remove the exploring creature after you reveal a nonland card but before it receives a counter.
