Well, it's pretty much strictly better than Kindled Fury.

Izzet is doing a really good job at making the core set commons feel silly.

@FaceClaimer, how right you are. My opponent had 3 creatures on the field all with one power and defense more than mine. I baited the attack by sitting defensively and had this in my hand. She attacked with her whole army which could kill mine. I blocked appropriately and she gave one of her creatures trample. I overloaded this in response and the look of horror on her face kind of made me feel bad... but not really.

After seeing the gatekeeper cards at common, I believed limited was going to slow down. After seeing this, I changed my mind. This is gonna make for some wicked Boros battalions.

What's with the guy's dreads?
And the super-duper low overload cost?
This could go into already-broken Boros decks.
ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT BOROS.

The last time an effect like this was printed was Mirrodin Besieged, the set with Battle Cry. That's probably why Rally the Forces costs 3 and this costs 2 when overloaded (and you want to overload this whenever you can, on attack as well as defense). What amuses me is how well some of the red Izzet cards--this one and Dynacharge, specifically--synergize really well with Boros tactics. The color overlap is obvious, but flavor-wise, I feel like it hints toward the cooperation between the two guilds that created things like Warmind Infantry and Ball Lightning Helix--I mean Spark Trooper.
Long story short: sweet card, would play, specially in casual and limited.
