It's really not bad at all in mono-white control. All those late-drawn weenies aren't dead weight in your hand while she's in play.

Run with Tithe, and/or Lotus Vale.

As someone said, late game in a mono-white weenie deck, this card can turn your once feeble cards into a threat.
Unfortunately that will make this prime target for a quick removal.
4/5

or, you can dredge this into your graveyard, stitch together then, with those creatures dredged in there, necromancer's covenant

8 for a 6/6 flier that can do an insane boost to all of your creatures isn't too bad. Perhaps 1 less would be nice, considering it's triple white, but still. Formidable enough.

Token-producers like Spectral Procession and Raise the Alarm simultaneously give you several creatures to be buffed while padding your graveyard. In a regular weenie deck, seven cards in the graveyard probably means seven dead creatures, or less creatures in play. Still, such a strategy is generally going to be too fast for the Seraph to be necessary....

When you get an effect that gives all your creatures +2/+2 when you have threshold and a flying 6/6 that does not sux

this is meh. Here is why. If you have a deck that can regularly pump out 8 mana and 7 cards in the graveyard before the other guy wins, you're usually not going to have many creatures floating around. You'd probably rather have Akroma, Angel of Wrath.

There is definitely better team pump in white. Just look at Glorious Anthem, Honor of the Pure, Captain of the Watch. Plus, this pump is conditional. No me gusta.

This is sort of obsoleted by Elesh Norn, Grand Cenobite. It gives -2/-2 to creatures you don't control, doesn't have a requirement,has an extra point of toughness, and is less color intensive. The only real drawback is that it doesn't swing for six in the air, but that isn't really the point of the card.
