I keep looking at it and saying, "Ya, it's white, but is it the whitest card in all of Magic?"
Kind of wish they saved the mana cost for a cool cycle or something.

The card in itself is solid, but for only 4 mana you get a 3/3 with Flying and it doesn't take combat damage? Epic.

combo with Pariah and you will get your opponent to look very annoyed. A job well done indeed.

With Whispersilk Cloak, this essentially has "protection from everything." A miniature Progenitus, if you will.

What does protection mean?
-No damage. Dawn Elemental's built-in ability says this.
-No enchantment or equipment. Shroud from the cloak does this.
-Unblockable. The cloak says this.
-Untargetable. Shroud from the cloak.

So, as far as I know, there are no situations where this works differently from Progenitus, aside from the ability to block flying and do much less damage.

@SleetFox:

Effects that put an Aura directly into play (i.e. not casting it) can have the aura enchant things that are untargetable, and without protection Dawn Elemental won't cause the aura to fall off immediately like Progenitus.

@SleetFox - If you were to cheat an Aura onto this with Zur or something similar the aura would stick to this, while on Progentials it would fall off straight away as it has protection from it.

@ raptorman333

Because, voice of all protects you fom one colour while this protetcs you from any kind of damage this creature would recieve, which means, that he's not gonna die because someone decided to Lightning Bolt him. This guy is also an perfect blocker, since he can block anything and not die, while your angel, can be pwned yb other colors.

Ususally, decks aren't monocolored, but if they are, they're tribal, so one 2/2 creature wont benefit you much there. Lets say you are playing vs Red-Green-White deck. You choose red, but then you get attacked by 15/15 green vinnila creature.. what to do then?

I hope you understand now, why this creature is so much better ;)
