Honestly, I think "bolt the bird" play patterns are going to be common in Standard again given that Llanowar Elves is in Foundations.
Back in the ONE Standard environment, I saw lots and lots of players use Armored Scrapgorger. I almost never played removal on it, except to clear a path for an attack. Now I get why this is wrong.
You live, you learn.
:facepalm:
Hence "bolt the bird", even though neither Lightning Bolt nor Birds of Paradise have been Standard-legal for over a decade.
It took me over a year of playing Magic to understand what "bolt the bird" means and why it matters. I'm dumb.

I think the last time Llanowar Elves was in standard, we had Steel Leaf Champion, so, yeah, we need to remember to bolt the bird.

...yup.
Also, Fynn, the Fangbearer is in Standard again, along with Venom Connoisseur... fun.
