It sure is a lot of creature for 2 mana. I made a deck with 4 of these guys and a few Mikaeus, the Lunarchs, as well as Gavony Townships, and, of course, no nearly mono-White deck could do without 4 Honor of the Pures. Travel Preparations was really good as well. The result was beautiful. These cheap guys can get pretty damn amazing with a few (okay, a lot) +1/+1 counters on them. A GW deck with all of those synergies doesn't need expensive cards to "carry" for them. Any cheap creature will do, especially if they have some devastating abilities on them.

At worst, it's a 2/2 first strike vigilance for . In standard, this is gonna be a boss. However, my casual pool doesn't play a whole lotta tribal, so he's not gonna be as good, but I got one at the launch party, and it worked pretty well! Also, two relevant creatures types is a plus

It's basically a mini-Baneslayer Angel.
Not getting nearly as much hate though, I guess because it's regular rare and it's not seen as trying to "displace" a classic treasure (Serra Angel).

Perhaps a relative of Undead Slayer? Or maybe they just went to school together.

Seriously? He's only at 4/5? What the heck else do you want from your two-drop? I wouldn't blink at playing this guy at {2}{W}, and would consider sticking him in a tribal deck for {1}{W}{W}. At {W}{W} he's just amazing.

"The newest 'knight' card, one that costs WW and has first strike, protection from something, and a 2/2 body"
Too bad he's NOT a Knight. Would be great in a Knight deck. I'd give up vigilance to make him a Knight. Still, solid card - 4/5.

Wow. The only thing that can kill this guy from the set is another human... Eep!
