I don't prefer this art to any other. That said this was a great card and still is. Plus the combination with symbiotic wurm will always be a favourite of mine. This card is black and proud and its an angel!

This is, in my opinion, the perfect card to show a new player. It's flavorful. It's an iconic fantasy trope. It shows the philosophy of Black. It allows them a bit of fun strategy (sac the blocked creatures). It's powerful enough to win a game. It teaches them the meaning of sacrifice. It encourages a creature heavy strategy (something most new players like, in my experience). It could encourage you to build around death triggers. It has magnificent art and flavor text. It teaches them the power of evasion.
5/5 not for power, but for greatness.

This art is MUCH better with a black border!
Used to swing wither Her, a smal black weenie army in play with Grave Pact... kinda like a slow motion Wrath of God and Fireball all in one...

Bloodgift Demon is better. Draw your answers from your library, don't sac your other win conditions.

It's funny, I don't think I ever use her for the evasive aggro. Infact, I don't even run swarms of creatures in the deck I put her in, and pretty much everything else is much beefier than she is anyway. No, I use her for the free instant sacrifice ability to get rid of my Abyssal Persecutor when the time is right. Or pop my Havoc demon to wipe out a field, or trigger a Gravepact. Even sac my Lord of the Pit or Xathrid Demon or any other big meanie who ends up having too much of an appetite at an inconvenient time.
No I know there's far more mana efficient creatures for this, but none are so flavourful as Fallen Angel.
