Haha! Love this thing soooo much. Good artwork, flavourful, amazingly well done. This is a proper rare, not completely overpowered like some giant 5 colour hydra legends out there...

Thats pretty neat, haven't seen this one yet. Hmm..... Yeah I like it. Extra kudos for being a Knight.
The fact that it's an activated ability is actually an advantage: it's not vulnerable to combat tricks, because if someone throws Might of Oaks on whatever is in combat with it you just mimic the buff for {1}.

@OboyOriginal Not smart. As long as the opposing creature's toughness is higher than its power, your Sworn Defender will die.

If you can find a way to abuse her power, then that's something to keep in mind, but generally she's just a somewhat-worse Sentinel.

The de***ion on this is waaaaay too wordy, and the mana-pump is a slight turn off, but unlike sentinel, this girl is good for attacking AND blocking, whereas sentinel needs a power buff first.
Drop a holy strength on this and for one mana it'll block anything AND kill it unless it's indestructible.
Sure, 4 mana is a bit mid-to-late for this, but that's just in time to block out the late game killers.
So for 1 mana it's just short of killing it's prey and just above being killed by it. For an extra 1 mana you can update those stats to counteract any buffing your opponent can do, but don't get in a pump-war with a shade.
Viscous with trample - 1 mana guarantees it'll be ready to spill over some damage with a small boost, but be VERY careful with attacking because multi-blocking will mutilate this.

I would not mind a reprint of this.
