Best flavor text ever. If I lived 800 years ago, it would be my catch-phrase.

He stands for every fool, but he secretly pities them.

Coming in Dark Ascension: Human tokens. I'm saying this on the first day of previews - stock up on this guy, because things will get more ridiculous when Gather the Townsfolk and Thraben Doomsayer come out.

with a ton of cheap cmc humans in this set and "mentor of the meek" to keep your hand full, this guy is a beast! 5/5

This card is nuts and bolts. The fact that it counts tokens too is just over the top. If you're ever in doubt whether to run this or not, I did the following recently with my Human deck:

T1: Plains, Champion of the Parish.
T2: Plains, Gather the Townsfolk (got some from the DKA prerelease), attack with 3/3 Champion.
T3: Plains, Gather the Townsfolk, Doomed Traveler, attack with 6/6 Champion & two 1/1 tokens.
T4: Plains, Fiend Hunter, swing with the whole team, and my opponent conceded.

This thing should be the first thing your opponents want to kill. If you leave it be, it grows out of hand very quickly.

It fits its rarity, it's cost and even its flavor text. It fits a budget friendly deck with Elite Vanguard, Gather the Townsfolk and Increasing Devotion. This is exactly what a rare card should be.
No matter if you're a johnny or timmy player, you look at him and easily, in your mind, you see a deck around him.

The Fiend Hunter loop results in infinite +1/+1 counters. :D

I wish I could figure out how to use this guy. Maybe then I could be competitive.
