Very powerful and strictly better than Crusade, but I wish Wizards would stop printing cards that make other cards completely useless.

Considering that Crusade costs WW and affects all creatures, I think this card should have had a casting cost of 2W or 1WW instead. I also can't believe how easy it is to get your hands on one of these since it's included in the "We Are Legion" Intro Pack. Speaking of that, I find it amusing and ridiculous that a playset of Honor of the Pure costs roughly the same price as buying four Intro Packs.

Honor of the pure is powerful, but short of broken. Works well with conqueror's pledge and other such weenie cards. Get the most benefit by putting out the most creatures to benefit from the ability.

I know it's horribly imbalanced, but I still love this card and would happily run a playset of them. With Captain of the Watch and the Veteran Armorsmith/Swordsmith, if at all possible.

Apparently reprinting Crusade wasn't alright for Magic 2010.
Either because global buffs are simply outdated in modern play, or because the double-white mana cost was not good enough for M10's powercreeped white.

This is powercreep incarnate. White is unbelievably overpowered now. I guess BALANCE is not important anymore, let's focus on AWESOME RARES F*** YEAH! And none for you blue, go away, no one likes you!
...
I'm really depressed now.

Does anyone remember Glorious Anthem?
That is all of your creatures for one white mana more.
I don't think it's over powered, considering crusade, but I do agree that it is inefficient to render older cards utterly obsolete, but then again, Lightning Bolt for Shock and Volcanic Hammer, and 'nuff said.

Jesus H. Christ doing Loop-de-loops on a biplane, is this card ridiculous. Considering it all-but obsoletes Glorious Anthem and all. Should've cost 2W or WW at the least. Absolutely ridiculous.
