This is an all around decent card, but bant has so many better options on turn 2 and 3. Rhox War Monk, or anyone one of the the games 2 drops. I'd much rather have an extra creature in my deck over an enchantment that just gives exalted. When ur playing bant people are going to go nuts with removal, and u have to be able to push through that.
Turn one Hierarch
Turn Two Rhox
Turn Three Rafiq
Turn 4 Elspeth or Finest Hour
Or on Turn three have anyone of the following options
Sigiled Paladin
Deft Dualist
Jehessian Infiltrator
All of them help u land damage that much faster and don't think out your deck, plus the first strikers kill off ur opponent's creatures.

I don't like anything about this card but the art. It's not even a question about whether the card is good or not for me (it plays reasonably well in limited). I really dislike the look of two separate reminder texts. They should have combined them both after placing both keywords, especially because they did it on the landcyclers in this same set. Apart from that it feels too much like a card that just has cascade, because if you wanted to play more exalted in your deck you would likely be better off just running another creature that has it, rather than taking a chance at which card you might pull up.

Elegant card, very well designed, this cards itself makes my cascading land control deck possible, very balanced in my opinion and that's good, thanks wizards for making such a good job on this one. We want this kind of cards, not broken baneslayer angels and lotus cobras.

2.5 stars. I really enjoy cascade, but putting it on subpar cards is making cascade much less appealing. Having exalted is decent in places like limited, but this card doesn't do much of anything in constructed. The cascade effect is really good but at the cost of having a card in your deck that is really subpar for the mana cost. And past turn 3, why would you want to topdeck this card? By then, you are usually going to want to attack with more than one creature, and the cascade benefit will be minimal. Cascade should be stuck on cards that do more, in my opinion.
