I've had endless fun with this guy in my Light From Within deck, though it's easy to see why
The biggest problem this Liege has is that he's a 1/3. That's it.
Otherwise, the U/W combination provides buffs for a wide variety of really good creatures, and he does so at instant speed which provides a large degree of flexibility, letting you work around counterspells and act as a combat trick.
It would be a truly awesome Liege (compared to the others) if it were just a bit bigger, say, 3/3.
One of the worst things to happen to this liege is that he was printed during the Lorwyn Block cycle, or as I called it, the "Faerie Deck Wins Block".

If this card was not a liege, I'm sure it would be rated higher. It is not a bad card, it gives white/blue hybrid creatures +2/+2 and has flash. BUT, compared to the other lieges, it does seem rather dissapointing.

Well, at least it's cheap. Sort of.

It might not compare to its brethren but this card by no means deserves to be rated in the bottom third of the Shadowmoor cards (right next to cerulean wisps to boot).

I think he's meant to be a surprise blocker and surprise buff all in one. Is he amazing? No. But there are plenty of times you could find yourself needing a boost and another blocker.

He's not the best leige, but he does work fine in blue white decks especially because he has flash. I used him with success with pride of the clouds, spectral procession, and twilight drover. Pride made 1/1 WU tokens that became 3/3 after i flashed thistledown. Greatest thing is waiting until blockers are declared then popping him out.
