I'm a bit sad that the lifegain doesn't scale with the number of players, but I suppose that would get pretty out of hand in multiplayer. Still, I like efficient beefy creatures and life drain, so I'm happy here.
Thank Heliod that this one isn't part blue, I already shuddered at the option of pairing this with Deadeye Navigator and the various other blink shenanigans in EDH.
Pushed card without being broken, I like it.

My Commander decks:
Chandra, Torch of Defiance - Oops! All Chandras. Prime Speaker Zegana - Draw for Power. Pir & Toothy - Counterpalooza. Arcades, the Strategist - Another Brick in the Wall. Zacama, Primal Calamity - Calamity of Double Mana. Edgar Markov - Vampires Don't Die. Child of Alara - Dreamcrusher.
Faith in Abzan restored. This is exactly what I pictured when they called Abzan the controlly, grindy deck - not the psuedo-aggro outlast cards we've got so far. (actually, this is still pretty damn aggro if you think about it. Turn 3 off Caryatid? - Yes Please!)
Made an account just to post that. Whip of Erebos makes this card unfair... 4/5 Trample Lifelink that comes in and gives you 3 Life and takes 3 from your opponent. as a 4 Drop that can be recurred from the grave for a turn... I can't decide between Sultai or Abzan for my Whip deck...
It's a good card. Not sure what else to say. It's definitely good enough to see constructed play but isn't broken and it's design suites the Abzan color scheme perfectly.
But of course, what else would you expect from the most control-heavy clan of the set but efficient four-mana beatsticks?
The card is obviously good and might make Abzan a thing all by itself, but I just don't understand the discrepancy between the intent and the cards we get.

Trample
When Siege Rhino enters the battlefield, each opponent loses 3 life and you gain 3 life.
4/5

No this isn't. I want unplayable jank rares like Ivorytusk Fortress for Abzan colors!
