Because apparently reading oracle text is too difficult for people:
"Cast Master Warcraft only before attackers are declared.
You choose which creatures attack this turn.
You choose which creatures block this turn and how those creatures block."
And for emphasis:
"You choose which creatures attack this turn.
You choose which creatures block this turn and how those creatures block."
What does this mean?
You can choose any number of creatures that will then attack this combat phase, if able. You may choose 0 (preventing any creatures from attacking that turn.)
You can choose any number of creatures that will then block this combat phase, if able. You may choose 0 (meaning every creature will remain unblocked, unless some other combat shenanigans happen.)
You may choose what creatures block what creatures. You may force a 1/1 utility creature to block a 5/5 trampler. You may force every single creature an opponent controls to block your deathtouch creature. If ... (see all)

"You choose which creatures attack this turn"
"You choose how each creature blocks this turn"
So my Razia and my Agrus attack and I make your godhead of awe attack agrus and redirect 3 of the damage back to it? Sounds fun.
P.S. You read it wrong if you think its anything besides you choose who attacks and who blocks. I really don't understand why you think it meant anything else, or if you just didn't realize that this is exactly what it meant. It's not exactly game breaking but it is a pretty good card.

PROTIP FOR ANYONE READING THIS: YOU DO NOT CHOOSE WHO THE CREATURES ATTACK, ONLY WHICH ONES ARE ATTACKING, NOT WHO THEY ATTACK. DON'T PLAY IT THE WRONG WAY, THIS CARD IS PROBABLY MUCH LESS POWERFUL THAN YOU THOUGHT.
-Yes, I was sad when I found out too. :(
IMO, they should reprint this as a new card, that actually functions the way you think it does and let you decide who they attack.

@jsttu No, it's not. First Glance I was ready to try to get it for my deck and saw greg's comment. Made me look twice. Thanks greg.
