## Oracle Text
First strike
When this creature enters, you get {E}{E} (two energy counters). Then if you cast it from your hand, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card. You may cast that card by paying an amount of {E} equal to its mana value rather than paying its mana cost.
