Someone on the WotC development team has an insane fetish with the White section of the color pie and demands that it get better cards than the other sections. This is a card I could have seen in the original Innistrad set and there are almost no other cards in this set I can say that about. Card is very good.
That art is really good. You can just sort of feel the martyrdom.
As for the card itself, it is also really good. But if Wizards is perfectly fine with white being the only good color in Standard, could they at least print some Modern-playable white cards as well?

In all seriousness, Dauntless Escort is great, and Selfless Soul blows it out of the water. Holy cow!

Let's not forget to throw in cards like Always Watching and Dragonlord Ojutai to make this an insane aggro deck.
As for the card itself, it is also really good. But if Wizards is perfectly fine with white being the only good color in Standard, could they at least print some Modern-playable white cards as well?
Storm Crow is strictly worse than Seacoast Drake.
