This card was originally printed as a failsafe against Goblin decks that abused Patriarch's Bidding.
Of course when Mirrodin came out, Affinity supplanted Goblins as the aggro deck, so so much for that...

@Kryptnyt: They aren't lead, they're gold. All creatures on Mirrodin have metal in them, associated with their color. Incidentally, it's the same type as the myr that produces that color. So Auriok, the white tribe of humans, has gold.

Because the battlefield is the best place to be while wearing your skimpy underwear. Christina Aguilera made this one a FIGHTER. But seriously, I agree that she is like Soul Warden 2.0, and i don't feel bad when she gets Path'ed cuz it saved one of my more aggressive creatures from it.

Soul Warden, Essence Warden, Soul's Attendant, Auriok Champion, and some Ajani Pridemates. You'll have more lifegain weenies than your opponent's removal, by far! Then drop your Serra's Ascendant and Felidar Sovereign just in time.

Anti-Burn, Anti-Goblin, Anti-Nuke, Anti-almosteverythingthatisgoodathurtingher.
Basically its soul-warden 2.0, she learned to dodge the nasty shit and keep the benefits. If your deck has soul warden, ask yourself why you wouldn't have these in it either with them or instead.

The important difference between her and Soul Warden, is that with Auriok Champion you can choose whether or not to gain the life. That rarely matters, but it helps against anti-life gain cards.

A Soul Warden but with Pro-Removal, and she's in her panties/skimpy clothes.
A winner in my book. ;D
