I predict a similar trajectory for serialized cards

If I had to rank them personally, it would go something like: Sakura-Tribe Elder in decks that care about it being a creature Nature's Lore in Mono Green or multicolor decks that run Forest duals (Breeding Pool) Sakura-Tribe Elder in decks that don't care about its card type (hey, it can chump block!) Rampant Growth because I really like ramp that I can cast in turns 1 and 2 Skyshroud Claim in the same decks as Nature's Lore Kodama's Reach / Cultivate Grow from the Ashes Explosive Vegetation I'I think it's really close between Kodama's Reach / Cultivate and Grow from the Ashes but in most cases I'll prefer the Cultivates as I find them overall stronger when cast on turn 3, which is the most important aspect of these ramp cards to me

This version of Archangel of Thune is one of only four reprints the card has ever received
