This is a must for any bird deck, even funner with Soraya the Falconer.

One of the stars of my Kangee, Aerie Keeper EDH... one card, four birds. Works well with Skullclamp or just use global pumps to pound face with the tokens.

This + the best white pump of all time: Fortify
I just love keeping people on their toes with a mono white deck :D

this is a nutty flashback cost. :P
token-making cards are plenty good without self-synergy. A token-making card, that synergizes with itself as a FLASHBACK cost is something we really don't need more than one of.
However, I do like that we have a couple like that. There's nothing I like more in Magic than a bunch of cards with perfectly reasonable effects that create most of your collection, just so you can point to a couple 'special' ones and say 'HAHA! I can't believe they made this card! xD'
Extremely non-reprintable. Ergo it will always stay special :)
@wstonefi: you are of the school of people who don't understand the phrase 'metagame consequences'. No, for the overall good of the game, I NEVER want to see this card as an instant o.o
(Except in my Magic Set Editor custom set of broken awful things. We all have one. Admit it. Thanks for the idea!)

Spectral Possession, this, mass pump = the terror. Try Charge Across the Araba for best results.

Do you have one white creature, any one white creature, in play? Then this is four mana for four creatures with flying - no muss, no fuss. Even today's token producers have trouble keeping up.

Imagine dropping this after Soraya the Falconer, and then next turn you drop Cathars' Crusade. Have some +1/+1 counters.

Works beautifuly with Courier Hawk or Skyshroud Falcon. You attack first, then you can cast this and flash it immediately.
This card really helps to keep some birds around when you're using Soulcatchers' Aerie.

Obligatory comment with Doubling Season, though this card in particular is much more potent with the Season on the field.....basically reads "{2}{W}{W}: put 5 untapped and 3 tapped bird tokens into play." 8 total power for 4 mana? With flying? And near immunity to spot removal? ME GUSTA.
