Underrated so far. This is a great permanent for just two mana, especially in Avacyn, a set full of huge flyers that would otherwise kill your attackers.
In multi colour decks (say green-white) you can pack in lots of flyers that now cannot be easily opposed once you play this. This pretty much won us games in sealed deck.
I'm even tempted to sideboard it so next time someone uses a load of lingering souls to make a chumping wall of weenies my attackers will go straight through.

Eh? only 3.3/5 rating?
People, have you played a game when you have a few little creatures getting munched up by their tough fliers like Serra Angel?
I know why it isn't that high (3.9/5 may be reasonable), but I think this has amazing potential in EDH.

@theoneandonlyjoseph
"combine with Silhana Ledgewalker for a hexproof, unblockable creature."
So for only 4 mana and 2 cards you can have an invisible stalker in mono-green...
Seems bad

Howard said it all. Amazing card and very underrated. As said, the number of huge fliers in this set means Green might have problems getting their big beasties in for combat damage.
Match it up with some Angels, Demons, Dragons or whatever fliers you want and your opponent has no way to block you. Match it with some Blue and it'd be worth giving your opponent's creatures flying just so they can't block.

This card is absolutely phenomenal. Basically, it turns flying creatures into creatures that cannot be blocked except for by creatures with reach.

An unexpected surprise against my opponent who heavily drafted fliers. Also makes my fliers a little bit better. However, overall it doesn't really do much.

Think about it... without abilities like reach... this practically makes all your flying creatures unblockable. And there arent that many constructed-worthy creatures with reach anyway

Suprised no one mentioned Gruul Charm with this.

They have printed so many variations of abilities similar but never this aggressively costed.
