@Guest: You forgot to take into account different reprints for each card, which brings the number to a much higher number. However, if you were to just consider one print of every card, and if there were 10,000 cards total, and you random-ed this card twice, the chances of that happening would be 1 in 10,000 EACH TIME. You can't just go adding chances together, that's not how it works.
Anyway, on topic: this card stinks, but back in the day, it was... ok.

Fun vintage facts: This card was once restricted in Type 1.

I successfully used this in a Meekstone deck back in early '96. A permanent +1/+1, on the other hand wouldn't have worked out as well since most of my creatures wouldn't have been able to untap on my next turn.

Seventh edition art is the worst thing that ever happened to magic.

Why the *** did they make this cost 4?? At 2, it would be fair, because it costs 1 less than Glorious Anthem, and Glorious Anthem affects your creatures at all times, and it gives them a toughness bonus. But a 4 mana, this card is just bad!
(If you didn't know it costed 1R, then go look at the Alpha version)

Guys this makes your Storm Crows and Chimney Imps 2/2 Flying beatsticks! Just one of them out takes your opponent from a 20 turn clock to a 10 turn clock.

This seems rather slow, but at least that balances it out for the fact that it's just an uncommon, not a rare.
