AWESOME flavor. 4/5 for that alone.

Seems a bit underpowered. Pendelhaven by comparison seems like a much stronger card with fewer restrictions.

2/5

@Gaussgoat: If you're running a soldier deck, why not use both, then?

Tapping two of your lands to give a single soldier +1/+1 until eot is NOT worth it.

Ok land with a little tribal pump effect. Worth it for the cost.... nope, unless the soldier has double strike or some other effect.

@Gaussgoat
Nope, not when you're playing good pump cards like Daru Warchief or Captain of the Watch. Really, any soldier deck that tries to use unpumped 1/1's isn't gonna work.
@Digit
Yes, it is worth it. Simply put, there will be times when you have nothing to do with your lands and giving your guy +1/+1 will really make a difference, whether it's to save him from a bolt or to get in an extra point of damage. Plus, since your deck is probably mono white, you can afford to have a land that adds colorless. It won't help 50% of games, but when it does, it's totally worth it.
@statiefreez
Thank you for being an intelligent person. You can put a few of each into a mono white deck without being afraid of color screw, unless you're playing some very color intensive soldiers. (e.g. Loyal Cathar)

It must be chilly there, judging by the tops of those buildings.
