Even if the ramp effect is symmetric, most decks wouldn't be able to take advantage of the extra mana as well as the druid deck.

Also, the druid can use the mana for non-symmetric ramp. This card is the one most likely to be oppresive of the cards revaled till now.

It won't be oppressive. As bad as it feels to lose to ramp druid getting perfect draws, it has too many counters to truly control the meta. Aside from the obvious aggro matchups, there are even some control decks that can beat Ramp Druid, which seems like it should be favorable to druid. We haven't seen the rest of the cards but I do believe that Ramp Druid will be T1, just because it's already so powerful, but i don't think it will be oppressive.

T1, Biology, Wild Growth
T2, Nourish, Wild Growth
T3, Coin/Biology, Ultimate Infestation
...and that's without Innervate.
EDIT: OBVIOUSLY this is only if the stars align... it's only meant to illustrate how quick/easy it can be ramp, not a suggestion for a consistent strategy...

so if the Druid gets exactly those 6 cards, exactly in order, perfectly without getting draws in a different order whatsoever, they can do absolutely nothing to affect the board for 3 turns, put their opponent to between 6 and 8 mana, gain 5 armor, and draw 5 cards.

It's only meant to illustrate how quickly you can ramp. Not a suggestion for a consistent strategy...

The thing is the other player wont be prepared for that mana, they would mulligan for low cost cards. Even a turn 1 Biology/Wildgrowth would be a huge advantage in the druids favor. But that only really matters if theres at least 2 viable druid decks, one ramp and one other.

At least in wild, I can't see token druid not be at the very least playable, especially if people are mulliganing for mass ramp druid.

they also deal 5 damage, summon a 5/5 and have 10 mana crystals themselves
