This card is a lot better then Crusade due to it only affecting your creatures. The only time Crusade is better is 2HG. Also a permanent boost for only two Mana, well I would like four please 5/5.

With the new humans in Innistrad, this card's a pretty nice boost when you're swarming with your humans (if you're playing mono-white). Just be careful, the +1/+1 can make your creatures out of reach for Mentor of the Meek's ability.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this works on creatures you control, where as Mentor of the Meek triggers when creatures enter the battlefield. Since this triggers before the creature resolves (and thus gain control of it), this should not effect Mentor if the Meek at all?

@ugbootz the ability is static making it so when a normally 1/1 creature enters the battlefeild, it is for all intents and purposes, a 2/2. this card also has the same reaction with sigil captain But other than that, this card will win games.

According to the rulings on Mentor of the Meek, having Honor of the Pure out there won't undo the previous ability since the card is ENTERING the battlefield with a power 2 or less and only gains the boost after it's already on the battlefield.

just to reiterate what infernox10 said, this can screw over cards like Mentor of the Meek.
9/22/2011 Apply power bonuses from counters the creature enters the battlefield with and continuous effects like Mayor of Avabruck's when checking to see if Mentor of the Meek's ability will trigger.

You dont have to play mono white to run these, just make sure most of your creatures are white XD
Why must you rotate?! You were in M10, 11, and 12 and suddenly you Mack your bags and leave standard? Your synergy with my double strike deck was unparalleled! I though we had something beautiful! Go ahead and more back in with your Modern. See if I care.
Pls come back.

For all those wondering, this DOES affect Mentor of the Meek. Let's take a look at his rulings: Apply power bonuses from counters the creature enters the battlefield with and continuous effects like Mayor of Avabruck's when checking to see if Mentor of the Meek's ability will trigger. Mayor of Avabruck says: Other Human creatures you control get +1/+1. Meaning static effects like this WILL affect the power creatures enter with.
