Strange to see so few comments when this card is so highly rated.
This is one of my all-stars in my Umbra Mystic, Enchantress EDH deck. It's along the same lines as Rancor, in that it's recurrable and thus works really well as a Totem Armor. It only costs a draw every time you want to recur it, and it costs a little more to play. However, it's a bit better than the abilities provided by Rancor, and the possibility of recursion is usually enough to deter your opponents from trying to resolve your creatures with removal and sweeps, which is the point.
Overall, this is a great card, an aura that overcomes a lot of the weaknesses that auras usually carry.

Pretty strong card.
+3/+3 is nothing to scoff at, and you can get the enchantment back if they burn your creature. Also it fuels your graveyard with more dredge ammo.

As for enchantment auras go, this particular one is not just an exception to most others, its also one of the best ever made. You should always get what you pay for, and giving +3/+3 to any one creature for just three mana is a perfect example of that. And when the enchanted creature dies it doesn't mean you have to wallow in despair, the dredge effect give you back the enchantment and increases your probability of having a reanimation creature or other dredge cards in your graveyard. I guess thats what you call a win-win card.

One of my favorite dredge cards, also good running in a golgari deck, because if one of your creatures requires more power, just sac it to something (should be running savra for opponent sac) and next time you draw just replace it with this, amazing with grave-shell scarab.

Even with dredge, this card still lets you get 2-for-1'd whereas similar aura's (Elephant Guide and Boar Umbra) offer some protection against card disadvantage.

I've seen enough hentai to know where this artwork is going.
