Victory's Herald


"Victory's Herald" is a card form the "Mirrodin Besieged" set.  This is a card that can potentially be a game winner.  Many people underestimate flying creatures, and it is with creatures like this that bring out the strategic value in flying.   A 4/4 for 6 mana that has flying and whenever this creature attacks all other attacking creatures gain flying and lifelink until the end of turn.  A great ability especially for a white weenie deck, this is also great was to overwhelm you opponents with damage and gain life at the same time.  However a 4/4 for 6 mana is a little expensive for starters, second a simple 4/4 with this ability is a high priority target for you opponent and easy to take out at only 4/4.  With this card equipment or enchantments to ensure she stays alive and does her job in almost a necessity.  In all a good card but a little expensive and a little weak but has great potential to be a win card.  

Great for white decks, or white weenie decks.

Good:
-When attacking gives all other attacking creatures flying and lifelink 
-Has flying 

Bad:
-Too expensive for a 4/4 
-Ability is only activated if creature is attacking putting the angel at risk, and as a 4/4 it is easier to take out

Scully Rating: 7 out of 10
