Analysis:
Strengths:
-
Synergy with token decks: This creature Benefits Significantly from a deck that can generate multiple creatures, including tokens, in one turn.

-
Temporary buff: The Boost is only Until End of Turn, Making it less useful for Defense on an Opponent's Turn Unless you have instant-speed creature generation.
Potential Deck Placement:
- Eleven tribal decks could use as a synergy 2-drop that benefits from multiple Elves Entering the Battlefield.
- Token decks that focus on generating multiple creatures per turn.
- As a Filler Card in Green Limited Decks, Where IT Can Grow Larger with Additional Creatures Entering The Battlefield.
Flavour and Art:
The Flavor Text and Potential Art by Drew Baker Could Depict A High-Society Elf With a Mysterious or Dangerous "Little Friend," Perhaps a Pet Or A Magical Entity.
Overall impression:
Attended Socialite has a clear home in decks that can produce multiple creatures, particularly token-based strategies. It could serve as an early game threat that grows in power as you develop your board. While not necessarily a stack in constructed formats, it could shine in the right environment and is likely to be a decent pick in limited.
