I would have loved a Sleep reprint, but beggers can't be choosers.

Why is this rated so low? Against the right deck, it essentially says your creatures can't be blocked. An unexpected levitation wins games.

I'd say this is rated about right. Good enough to win a game here and there, but too situational to be truly amazing.

I've thought about making a red/blue "Flying Goblin" deck, using this one... Can you imagine? Goblins with wings... I love it! It's awesome if you have a lot of cheap creatures! Also, love the flavor text! 4.5/5

well, now that Innistrad is out, i now get to see a horde of flying zombies, especially after getting 13 on the field at once :). That in itself is hilarious and amazing. Plus this can almost give insta-wins in certain situations. Great card

Much of the time I'd just as soon play this as any of the myriad flying-granting blue spells and effects out there.
@Gatsumon: It's more like this. Player 1: "I play Levitation." Player 2: "I play Silklash Spider" Player 1: "Unsummon Silklash Spider." (Player 1 then counters the Spider when Player 2 attempts to re-cast) Player 2: "FFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"

Those guys in the art have both flying and horsemanship. Talk about hard to block.

Because you can't tap the sky for mana.

This is a pretty powerful card, and perfectly costed at a casting cost of four.
I guess I would disagree that this card is "situational", at least more than any other card is situational. If your opponent has plenty of flyers, you can now block them. If they don't have many flyers, now all your creatures are pretty much unblockable. That's a pretty powerful effect.
4.5/5

Mildly playable in, say, a more Timmy-oriented Reaper King edh deck.
