Does anyone else not get the art at all?

Needs a subtype, like knight or soldier as well as spellshaper. I based a whole deck around this guy and token generation. Excellent if you have reusable ways to return important creatures to your hand.

This could have taken Rafiq's spot in From the Vault: Legends. Except that I have no recollection of his importance as a character in stories.
I haven't finished the Great Weatherlight Saga, but still, I know most of the Crew and a bunch of highlights so if I haven't seen his name then he might just have not been very important. :/
Then again, as a story character I have no clue about anything to do with Visara the Dreadful either, I just know she's great to kill people with. Actually why the ruddy blinking stinking bleeding flying nine hells didn't Phage the Untouchable get Visara's place? o.O
Now that I just think of it....seems insane. Cuz she's like what you expect from Mythic Rare Legendaries now: Crucial to the story AND just happens to totally kick your ass too.
Well, hopefully Commander's Toolbox will see some of these given the reprints they deserve. There are actually not an infinite plethora of extraordinary Legends from before Mirrodin Block, so you'd think all of them... (see all)

There is Wrath of God, and then there's Wrath of Mageta. Who's the stronger one? Well, let me put it that way: God can't kill Norin the Wary...

I like the instant speed activation of a wrath effect. I also think that madness would be very fun with him (there are white madness cards, y'know). But this card is strictly casual. It can be killed before it does anything, it takes two turns to activate, and you lose two other cards. Ummm.... maybe if I can't find a Wrath or a Day of Judgment I'd run it.....nahhh....

How come MTG didn't make him a Giant during the Grand Creature Type Update?

While it does have the pro of being a reusable Wrath of God with a 3/3 creature afterward, there are a lot of downsides. The total cost of pulling off the first wrath effect is nine mana and two land card discards. Unless you have a haste ability in effect, your opponent is also going to see this coming for at least one turn. A 3/3 creature with no evasion of pump up abilities is vulnerable to all sorts of removal.
Overall it's a fun card but not as powerful once you examine it.
