Whenever you cast a Merfolk spell, create a 1/1 blue Merfolk creature token with hexproof. (A creature with hexproof can't be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control.)
A visit to the Deeproot Tree and its ancient spring replenishes a merfolk's connection to nature.

Where it came from
Deeproot Waters was originally printed in the 2017 set Ixalan, designed as a thematic enchantment to support the Merfolk tribe. It represents the subterranean rivers and hidden ecosystems of the plane of Ixalan, a setting inspired by Mesoamerican cultures and pulp-adventure aesthetics. The design focuses on defensive tribal synergy, creating a 1/1 Merfolk Hexproof token whenever a Merfolk is cast to reward players for committing to the archetype.
This specific iteration is a reprint featured in The Lost Caverns of Ixalan Commander set, released in 2023. The artwork is credited to Zezhou Chen, who maintained the card's original mechanical identity while updating its visual presentation to align with the return to the Ixalan plane. It remains a staple in Merfolk-themed Commander decks due to its ability to generate significant board presence over time.
