This card is a design nightmare.
- There is absolutely no reason for the mana cost => why blue? why multicolored?
- There is no reason for the card type => This could have been a normal GW creature
- There is nearly no useful game situation for this card = this card is clearly underpowered
Even if this card could bring a Meddling Mage, that creature wouldn need exalted. For me, this card is just another failure.

Wish they'd get rid of that awful reminder text.
Either way, what we have here is a mediocre cascade card that gives a very conditional +1/+1 to a single creature, which won't win any games, and cascade for 3, which won't win any games.
I'd pass, personally, but I bet it was a bomb in Limited.

It's not useful considering almost every other card in the Alara Reborn set has at least one of these abilities.

For a fun time, ensure that everything below the Plea is either a two-cost spell with Cascade, or Ancestral Recall.

I don't think its game changing enough to warrant a slot in a exalted deck.

My Bant Exalted deck loves this card. It's great in the early game for grabbing little Exalted creatures such as Qasali Pridemage and Aven Squire. It's great in the later game (turn 4) for grabbing a Spirit Mantle or Rancor to make sure my Rafiq gets through. Plus, it deals that little bit more damage that makes all the difference. Basically just a great card overall.

How good does this combo with cards with "Storm"? Begin rejoicing.
