This is actually a great combo: Fireball for 19, then Wrath of God. Then, you use this ability and kill the opponent!!!!!

Hey look on the bright side, if you have 4 white mana you can activate this twice!
...
On second though, forget it, this card sucks.

Best if comboed with the trash can.

The perfect answer to your opponent destroying your Barren Glory after you've used Kaervek's Spite! Just draw this the next turn, pay 6 mana in some probably impossible way, and BAM! 15 turn clock for your opponent!

Best if comboed with Worship, but still a crap card.

As of this posting, this is officially the worst-rated card on Gatherer (with 0.717 / 5 stars).
I can see why it's rare, because then relatively few people are cursed with owning one, as it's a "I dare you to find a use for me" puzzle card, and only the people who want the mental thrill of breaking it will choose to seek it out on the secondary market. I can see why it's at 4 CMC, because at lower cost it could actually be used in the early game, leaving the card bad , but not puzzle bad.
I just can't see why this is mana-activated AND limited to one use per turn. One or the other, sure. Mana-activated to prevent an arbitrarily large number of activations from going on the stack in a turn. Once per turn to limit it to one token per turn (say, so you can't get a token, chump block, and get another). Why? So you can't follow-up Wrath with a chump in the same turn before turn 6? Because with both of those being CMC 4, ANY mana cost for the activation limits it to turn 5 or later ... (see all)

Would be good if the casting cost was W.

At any point, I don't understand how this card was thought to be good enough for print. I know that they purposely made 'bad cards' back in the day, but ... there is no reason to make a purposeful bad card and make it a rare. Even if this cost 1 colorless I wouldn't see this having play even in casual. Who in the hell gave the OK for this to be printed?

this should be free, or cost two and the ability be free, or be able to activate it multiple times
