Sideboard? Nah, in WW this fine lady is main deck material.

8/8/13: This card should read "All good non-creature spells are now mediocre and all mediocre non-creature spells are now unplayable". I HATE playing against this card, and I feel guilty when I play WITH it. 4.5 stars!
8/17/13: Have I mentioned that I @#$%ing HATE this card?

Personally, I would have had her say "Non-Human creature spells cost more to cast" but I'm sure design had some reason for her to nerf cards that could help the humans fight the monsters while doing little to nerf the monsters themselves. Also, she was mentioned to be a Knight-Cathar in Innistrad, yet here she is a Soldier?

@ progenitus5: My view on the flavor is that the power of her righteousness directly opposes the dark magic of her foes, much like Grand Abolisher's ability. Of course, the mechanic affects your own sorceries as well; maybe she's a bit overzealous about what constitutes "unhallowed," or maybe righteousness isn't something you can turn on and off to suit your own needs, making the card very non-black.
Awesome card by the way. 5/5.

Very good. For 2 mana you get a Human solider(2 very relevant creature types), with first strke and makes non-creature spells cost 1 more. You are now slowing down any sort of spell that might be used to respond to your weenies. I wouldn't mind having a few of her. She is really good.

@JaFaR_Ironclad: I was thinking almost EXACTLY the same thing. I'd definitely agree that Thalia will volunteer to either bind with the current Avacyn or become a completely new Avacyn.
Look at a close-up of her card art and the promo art for Avacyn Restored. Their faces and hair color are almost identical. This may be why Thalia's card art shows her at such an unusual angle. Her flavor text (while it certainly doesn't prove anything) could support this theory.
I also agree with the idea of the hunted becoming the hunters as far as humans are concerned. As for any of this igniting Thalia's spark (should it exist), that may or may not happen. I'd like it, but I'll bet that it doesn't.

This is incredibly good, could make a large impact in standard and become an eternal white weenie STAPLE.
2 power first strike is very good at the moment; that shuts down a lot of attackers in the format. Low cost. The mana buffer is chocolate on the cake.
Oh, and tastefully hot.

A good legend. Glowrider costs 1 more but is also non-legend, I think both have a place in the right decks.
The art reminds me of Lightning from FF13.
