What it does
Whenever a commander you control enters or attacks, put a +1/+1 counter on it, then reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a land card. Put that card onto the battlefield tapped and the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.
The ever-resourceful Yeoman Rand approached scheduling conflicts and firefights with equal poise.
