a really nice card. this effect can provide an unblockable attacker or a very resistant blocker. you'll even get both simultaneously if you use this on a creature with vigilance.
given that this is a cantrip, having a one-drop aura that provides protection from creatures would be quite awesome, wouldn't it?

Makes a creature into an excellent beater, and the fact that it replaces itself is a nice bonus. Creature is of course still vulnerable to any removal effect, and can get you 2-for-1ed if they disenchant this card then block

Not so bad in this case to be 2 - 4 - 1ed, because it draws to make up for that.
I play this with Wall of Glare. It has so many uses beyond that, though, and it even replaces itself.

Super-unblockability AND a cantrip for only 3 mana? This card is a thing of beauty.

I run this card in my EDH Commander Eesha deck. It works wonders for getting my creatures through.

If it's not responded to while on the stack, it'll give at *least* a 1 for 1. When you consider some of the awesome "when this creature deals combat damage" triggers on creatures, it can easily do more than that - it's pretty much unblockable.
It's definitely one of the better enchants; you've just got to be careful with when you play it. If you can, wait until the opponent taps out (unless you're sure they don't have any removal available for it).

Card draw in {W} with a very relevant ability, my only criticism is the card disdvantage that results from playing auras, aside from that awesome card with awesome artwork that can be used both defensively (block all day) and offensively (the enchanted creature is unblockable).

plays well with sun titan. his lack of evasion has been cured. and it can-trips all day.

I personally like this more than Spirit Mantle. The higher CMC and lack of a buff (though small) kind of sucks, but the ability is still killer and the cantrip is awesome! 4/5

Looks like Major Teroh is threatening to make all of them black creatures. Haha

Fits splendidly in a Zur the Enchanter EDH deck, both in terms of flavor and in terms of total pwnage.

One of my favorite cards. I love Protection from Creatures, and drawing! @bparx I don't think that is Teroh. If anything, it's Commander Eesha (protection from creatures).

Cantripping white auras are so beautiful. Really nice on Accorder Paladin or other top heavy creatures, such as those found in red or black. A hunted Horror with this can get in for 7 every turn and you can use white removal on the tokens :D

Nice to grab with Sovereigns of Lost Alara. since unquestioned authority doesn't care about actually casting it, it will even give the free card

If you use Unquestioned Authority with Entangler, would you get 1 creature that could block all the opponents attacking creatures and not get destroyed by the combat damage?

Put it on a Palace Guard. Warning: If you also have a Greater Auramancy or two in play, a mono green player might try to punch you.

Run with creatures like Avatar of Hope, Kjeldoran Royal Guard, or Blinding Angel.
