i thought wizard will not be given token as a player rewards, but yet they still printing all these cards that create token creature. does it mean they might eventually bring back the token as a rewards again? so far i know there's few cards that create token in kamigawa block
Meloku, forbidden orchard, sosuke's summons and this card.
am i missing any other cards that create tokens in this block?
Just to name a few -
Honden of life's web
Dripping tongue
marrow gnawer
orochi hatchery
and much more.

am i the only one refreshing magic websites while looking at porn and eating fruit loops at 2 in the morning?...i feel so alone...
......WTF????....... I don't even know what kind of warning you deserve for this....
Let me say, I Love the art, but the card doesn't strike me as ooo wow!!!
Only since if WW becomes big then people with use NoSB and that will eat WW and any of its Tokens.
All the cards shown so far are solid and playable but nothing that made me jump with joy.
well there's terashis grasp, altars light, kami of ancient law, scour, to handle NoSB anyway... i would definitely play kami of ancient law by turn two...
looks like they are really pushing for white weenie decks to be good....defenitely a nice card to have in play. especially if you have a saccer..if they try to kill the enchantment you sac a zubera in response gain 2 life then get 4 1/1 tokens...cool

Not bad. Lose one creature, get four in return. It just might be playable. Too bad Replenish is banned in extended. Not too many cards that bring back enchantments, is there.

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
wrath 4th turn to get your 4 tokens then next turn use the massive white sweep and pump all for tokens +5+5...... thats a decent rush if you ask me... I like this card
I'm sick and tired of WotC printing subpar cards and claiming white weenie has a new "threat". This will NOT be the savior for white weenie. In fact, Raise the Alarm is better, since it can be played at end of turn, which is a big deal against Mono-Blue.
Hey look, a mass creature Card for white weenie, theres an Idea. Not to mention the synergy with Glorious anthem. Btw in many WW decks Ive seen around, they dont play wrath and if cataclysm comes back in.....w00t. Also think of the Cominability between this and the white sweeping pumper. I play WW, I just lost my (insert creature) and I now have 4 tokens. Ill cast this sweep spell, return 4 useless land and have 4 5/5s to beat you in the head. NOT BAD...NOT BAD AT ALL. This WILL be in my deck. And Second Sunrise works well with this card as well. I lost x creatures and my enhcnatment, hey look I pay 3 and get them ALL back hmmm the possibilities......

might be better to just drop something crazy then use PoB as a "If you kill it, you still have to deal with the tokens. Want to see if you can draw enchantment removal before you lose?" rather than "four 1/1s or a 2/2, 2/3, etc. Hmmm, might as well Wrath"
If you have a small army out, it's still in your opponent's favor to Wrath or whatever hoping you don't have Charge etc.
But on the other hand, if you just pound away with one creature and have the Promise out, they'll probably take substantial damage while trying to decide whether to take the creature out or hope they draw a Naturalize etc.
Man this card is boring... I don't know what to say. It might see play in block but I"m not impressed at all. It's the third preview in a row that sucks.
hmph... i haven't seen a preview card yet that i didn't like. an enchantment that replaces creatures as they as lost? i have to like that.
sac a hana kami for a great effect and get 4 1/1 spirit creatures out of it at the same time?
Well, whatever playability issues you have with the card aside, you have to admit it has some pretty cool art. I think this might be my favorite art of the whole Kamigawa block (and some of my favorite of all time).

I'll probably pick up four copies of this card just to have them around. There might be some use for them. Between this and Meloku a blue/white deck could produce a LOT of tokens.
Reminds me of Field of Souls from Tempest. This one guy I know made an ill deck using that card and it was pretty spiffy; attack for a whole bunch, ***, then do the same again next turn! YAY!

Yeah, it really is a gorgeous looking card. The artist must be new, I don't recognize the name. But, yeah, very hot.

Being cooler than Icatian Town doesn't really mean much...
Anyway, why in hell did people play it anyway? White had Serra Angel as one of the most efficient (read: the most efficient) finishers of Magic's early years.
Between this and the otehr SoK white cards Ive seen and heard rumors of Im thinking WotC has decided to try and finally make WW a viable deck. THis will have a place in many decks with few creatures and accel or many creatures with no Accel.
Btw that artwork is amazing. Ive finally found something in magic That I want to be able to prefectly redraw. (Scours for every picture possible now)

They've decided that for a long time now. Problem is, for some unknown reason, they're afraid of pushing the weenies to the limit, and we end up with a bunch of merely efficient creatures - nothing in the power level of Goblin Piledriver or Goblin Warchief. Seing as how they costed Charge across the Araba at 4W (3W would be more like it), this trend will continue.
