Precon Rare... It's sad when this is almost synonym to bad.
A crippled True Conviction on a meager 4/4stick.
With CMC 6 it's overcosted.
Want a solid beater? Take Baneslayer Angel which comes a turn earlier and does more (First Strike! 1 more P/T).
The Lifelink and Flying only trigger while attacking and thus advocate over-extending. It does very very little on it's own like when you have a bad board position. And more important it's just a 4/4 flyer when defending. True Conviction is also helping when you are on the defense AND it's far stronger on the attack when combined with any creatures.
As mythic it would have been probably printed with 2WW Mana cost ;)
To be fair: I like the art.

Triple 
,mediocre angel body for 6cc, and ability that must wait 'til next turn makes it one of the worse angels in standart, and worst rare angel hands down. Well, at least it ain't mythic.
And that art looks like lame comic superhero... with one metal wing.

Give it Sword of Vengeance!
That nets you a non-legendar, standard legal, almost Akroma for 9cmc. Which isn't really that crazy. Especially if the sword's already been on the board for a few turns. I run singletons of both her and Sun Titan in my WW just in case it gets to the late game.
Herald + Sword of Vengeance + Armored Ascension made my Mono-Red friend very sad. Having said that...a 1/1 with Sword of Vengeance and Armored Ascension ends the game just as easily; only without preposterous amounts of life gain.

wait, how is this below a 4 star at the time of my writing. I want all the people who gave this below a 3.5 to play against her (or him?), then come back on here, and up your effing rating on this lovely. :)

Not half bad. Arguably half mediocre, but not half bad.

This guy can indeed seriously turn a game around full circle.
I played my first booster draft last night, and I won my second round because of him.
I had about 6 life left, with maybe 4-5 poison counters, and my opponent had about 16 life with 0 poison. On the field, I had Kemba's Legion, Victory's Herald, and I had just summoned Flameborn Hellion. I then cast Assault Strobe on my Hellion, and then attacked with all three. He had nothing with flying or reach.
Like I said, full circle.
