I don't really understand why they put cards like this in the decks.. They could've reprinted something that actually deserved it.

Someone missed the whole point of these decks. Fun casual inclusion.

This card is pretty decent. In a multiplayer game, you benefit from everyone else's attacks. It adds up.

Amusing with Gisela, Blade of Goldnight-
they have to hit you for 5 to do even one point of net damage.

Downright hilarious with Forcefield (and mana to use it)- no unblocked creature will ever land any net damage.

@drpvfx

The opponent swings for 3 with one creature, half that rounded up is two. You gain one life for a creature attacking. That's one net damage. I think you accidentally a number somewhere in there.

But yes, Forcefield that is interesting. Maybe keep a Guardian Seraph to actually gain life.

Yeah, almost meaningless three card combo, but some people play casual still...right?

And Gisela prevents half of the damage rounded up, meaning if they deal 3, it prevents 2, having 1 go through. And since you're gaining life, you're not losing any net life. Though drpvfx didn't have it exactly right, as they can hit you for four, two of which is prevented, with an additional 1 subtracted due to Righteous Cause, making four the smallest amount the need to do to hit you.

Just out of curiosity, is it one activation per creature? I'm wondering for the synergy with Archangel of Thune.

Alternatively:

Do you regularly fight against lots of tokens?
