Premium Format:

Sylvan Horned Beast Emperor, Magnolia Elder is not an ideal unit in the Premium Format. The clans from Magallanica and Zoo have better strategies than this grade four unit. This card is too slow due to its grade and the best option is focusing on G-Units as the vanguard. 

In addition, Sylvan Horned Beast Emperor, Magnolia Elder requires a pure deck for Magnolia due to its abilities. This card’s second ability requires a unit with Magnolia in its name in the soul or on a rear-guard circle. You do not have a lot of room for creativity if you want consistency.

I recommend playing generic G-Units from Zoo with Sylvan Horned Beast Emperor, Magnolia Elder. One of the best G-Units from this nation is Guilty Empress, Darkface Gredora, and she has generic abilities. Guilty Empress, Darkface Gredora prevents the opponent from standing his or her units. Her ability provides a major advantage for Sylvan Horned Beast Emperor, Magnolia Elder.
