U-B-E-R I run three of these in my Enchantment/Pegasus deck. Thirty cards are enchantments, four Serra's Sanctums, four Deserted Temples, four Weathered Wayfarers, and I think you get the picture.

Kinda like Luminarch Ascension, but it is tribal with pegasi...even cooler
Easily among the best token-production cards in the game. Only Mycoloth gives this card a run for its 'money', as far as I can see it at the moment. Dragon Broodmother falls not far behind them - the dragon's just limited to one token per upkeep, like Verdant Force and Verdant Embrace.
The forced sacrifice just keeps this card balanced.
... I guess I should also mention Mirror-Sigil Sergeant and Luminarch Ascension; but they both have requirements beyond casting cost and beyond mechanics internal to the card itself. Even Mycoloth requires other edible creatures under your control before entering play (and that you actually sacrifice them to Mycoloth), before it produces its own tokens. Also, Luminarch's Ascension requires quite a bit of work before it can produce tokens for you: it normally needs to be in play for at least 4 of your opponents' turns.

Interesting, only gives a significant profit if you have 6 or more mana.

I used to run Sacred Mesa, Earthcraft, and Wild Growth on a Plains for infinite tokens :) My friends hated me. Tap enchanted plain, gain a token, tap token, untap land, and repeat :)

4-of in a Brony deck.
Actually I first discovered how amazing this card was at the Future Sight Prerelease. It wins games all on its own.

I didn't like this so much because I thought you couldn't play it turn 3. That was until I realized that you can respond to the sac trigger by making a token. Now I dig it.

So it makes pegasi, but requires you to sacrifice them every turn...

From now on I'm calling this Rainbow Factory.
