These guys are acutally not too bad, as in a band against a red opponent, they can eat all the damage. Love the artwork on this as well, an old favorite.

2/5 if you know Red is coming.

Banding almost always brings the cost up by 1c, but it's well worth it, especially in this guys case.
@Bluehero
This guy is one of Trivadar's knights, they just wear the same looking armour/weapons

I rate this card well because Magic is not always about brute effectiveness. Sometimes it's about flavor and art, and this is a classic in that regard. In modern times (if banding was still being printed) it would probably cost 2 colorless less, and at that price it would shut down some red decks. As-is, I still think of it fondly and use it in the occasional casual deck.
