Whenever another creature you control with power 2 or less enters, you may pay 1 generic mana. If you do, draw a card.
In a twinkling the table was laid. There was hot soup, cold meats, a blackberry tart, new loaves, slabs of butter, and half a ripe cheese: good plain food, as good as the Shire could show.

Where it came from
Mentor of the Meek was introduced to the Magic: The Gathering card pool as a staple white creature that rewards players for deploying smaller units to the battlefield. Designed with a focus on resource generation within the white color identity, the card allows players to pay a single colorless mana whenever a creature with power two or less enters the battlefield to draw a card. This mechanic was intended to provide white-based decks with much-needed card advantage, a recurring challenge for the color in competitive formats.
The artwork and characterization of the card were crafted to reflect the humble, scholarly aesthetic often associated with white-aligned support creatures. Over the years, the card has been reprinted across various sets and special editions, including The Hobbit Eternal, maintaining its role as a fundamental engine for token-based and weenie-style strategies. It has been consistently well-received by players for its balance of utility and cost, becoming a reliable inclusion in Commander decks that emphasize board presence and small creature synergies.
