The art for this is just stunning.
The effect is decent as well.

Boros effect.
Still a nice card.

So many commenters just completely disregard the fact that limited is a legitimate and popular format, where many non-constructed worthy cards have a solid place.
This is one such card - it's only viable in some casual decks in constructed, but in limited, it's an anthem affect at uncommon, on a creature with evasion and a high enough toughness that it often won't be able to be blocked effectively. Creatures are a huge part of limited, so being able to get a usually non-creature effect (anthem) on a creature is just gravy.
At 5 mana it's not an auto-pick, but when you have them you'll be happy to play them in most cases.

Massive Limited powerhouse, but don't play it in Constructed.

Terrible, just for how low that power is. His abilities aren't enough to make up for being a 1/5.

I am a huge sphinx fan, and have a very powerful sphinx deck... This wouldn't even be an after-thought. One of the worst sphinxes printed... ever. Art is plain too :(
2.5/5

why 1 power?! why?! geez... if it had 2 ok, it could at least kill a bear but 1? for 5 mana? it doesnt even need flying- no1 will block anyway

Basically a flying wall that buffs your other creatures during your attack phase. Drop from the cost and I would think about playing it.
