Can be played with Erratic Portal, if you have nothing better to spend three mana on.

This thing is amazing!!! It is very aggressive for its cost, has a relevant creature type (Kor), AND has the added bonus of gaining you a good amount of life. When you give it equipment, it really shines! And, it's a common!!!!!

4.5/5

The name, art, effect and flavour text all fit together very well. Good design. I love cards like this one.

Looks like WotC is coming to terms with the simple fact of life that "life gain kinda sucks.
Compare to Venerable Monk.

Good card.

Lifegain is not bad, except on its own. On its own, lifegain does nothing but stall the game for a few turns. You don't win when you reach a certain life total (barring other card effects), and the threats that are damaging you are still around if you just gain life. Now, attach a creature or some other useful effect on to lifegain, and you have a winner. Lifelink is an example of that.

Ew.

Wizards Employee: "Life gain is bad? I got an idea, let's just crank the numbers to ridiculously high!"

Yeah, I'm sure this will make for complex and exhilarating gameplay.

Why isn't this a 0/4 creature with defender??? You have versions like Wall of Hope, Wall of Essence or Perimeter Captain, but no pure lifegain??? Shame on you R&D!

And this could have been the white wall, whereas wall of Omen should have been a non-wall creature with defender instead (maybe a cleric => oracle).
