Just looking at the effects I would almost always rather play Shattered Angel. But looking at the art on both, it's hard to actually pick that over this.

Lolx gotta love how most of the people saying this card is crap are people who started ALA block or later :P This card is awesome, try using it, its alot more effective than you'd expect. Flavorful, fun, and devastating, always a good combo :)

Serra Angel costs the same.
So does Baneslayer Angel.
I know which I'd rather have in a deck.

Yeah, Vampire Nighthawk overclassed this.

However, this was first printed in Invasion, while Nighthawk came around in Zendikar. Compare creatures and spell power from then to now. It's like comparing Phyrexian Negator to Phyrexian Obliterator. You can't really, because a 3-cost 5/5 with trample was huge, no matter the drawback.

However, do note that the life gain is forced. If for some reason the life gain is bad (like Transcendence), you can't stop it.

That being said, you shouldn't play this with Transcendence anyway. That's like playing Planar Void in a Reanimation deck.
