it's a good card if your playing white and or black/white with the activated spirit ability costs.

Overpowered. Three 1/1s with flying are in most cases better than one 3/3 with flying, because of synergy with anthem effects. Three creatures for one card also dodge all the Bolts and Doomblades much better than a single creature, whereas pretty much the only thing that hurts this more than a 3/3 was Volcanic Fallout.
I played this a lot, I played against this a lot, and I hated it for how much of a bully this card was. If you dare not even print a straight 3/3 flyer for 1WW, then don't take a leap and print something like this.

So would you run this over Promise of Bunrei in a Sigil Captain deck?

@Blue_Blur: Vampire Nighthawk or Leatherback Baloth? They're only uncommons too.

Efficient. Stand Alone. Synergy Potential. Flexible. Defensive. Offensive.
What more could you want?!
Check out the top 8 deck lists for standard at Pro Tour Kyoto in Feb 2009:
http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/eventcoverage/ptkyo09/top8decks
5 out of 8 decks had four of these, while Bitterblossom was only in 3 of the decks (two decks had both).
It also fills a crucial hole in white flying decks at the 3 mana mark. The some total of white, efficient, flying 3 drops include this and Flickerwisp (Skyhunter Skirmisher get an honorable mention).

Lingering Souls and this are interesting comparisons. Run both!

Turn 3 this, turn 4 Ajani Goldmane and turn 5 Cloudgoat Ranger was pretty much the norm for white decks at the time. Black/White tokens could also do a turn 2 Bitterblossom in addition to the above mentioned.
