Gorgeous, game-winning card. Every game I've played this card, it was the game-changer. Will be interesting to see how much play it gets in standard.

I'm shocked that people are saying this hoses Gruul and Simic, but nobody's mentioned how badly it rapes Boros. Battalion requires three or more attackers, and Boros played correctly is highly aggressive. If you bounce an entire Battalion it raises the odds of that player having to discard at EoT, as well as setting their aggro deck back two full turns (assuming no Fervor-like effects are in play). Since you're probably running control elements while playing this, that could easily give you enough time to lock the game up.
Yeah, in general this card f*cks aggro up and it deserves a higher rating. One well-timed Aetherize can signal defeat almost entirely on its own.

Flavor text win; she sounds like the kind of girl I'd like to play Magic with.

Oh, so you're attacking with 6 creatures and have Battalion active? Oh... What to do... What to do...

The first card that came to my mind when I saw this was Gideon, Champion of Justice and of course tokens.
