"just imagine if this was a 1/2 First striker, this would contend for the worst rare ever"
Don't forget Chaoslace, and the rest of it's cycle, debuted in the same set. While a 1/2 first strike certainly isn't good, it at least stands up on it's own.
Also, Web was a rare...

From the other edition. Just saying: No matter where the quote came from, it's funny to see it here, of all places.

Nice joke
@everyone who doesn't know
The movie 300 was based on the Battle of Thermopylae.
This card's flavor text is referencing a quote made during that battle.
The battle happened over 2,000 years before MTG came out.

A decent card, this was one of the numerous Alpha misprints, just imagine if this was a 1/2 First striker, this would contend for the worst rare ever...I do love the flavour text however...

Interesting thing about the flavor text - this predates 300 by quite some time, one wonders if whoever wrote that particular bit of dialog in 300 was an old-school magic player...
@Eved; How do we know what anyone said at the Battle of Thermopylae? Herodotus may have used creative license in Histories vol VII.
