This entire cycle seems pretty solid to me. Actually gives your Skyknight Legionnaire so extra value in limited.

The Boros guild will absolutely adore this card. Stuff like Knight Watch or just ETB triggers will stack beautifully within the cycle.

Not-Elspeth here is pretty solid. Good for Limited, and has odd synergy with Restoration Angel and Geist of Saint Traft...

Insane limited common bomb. (is my prediction)

I really like the Denizens, and she's one of the better ones.

Assemble the Legion, or any white token generator like Mobilization are powerful combos, some even at instant speed, allow you easy offense and defense.

Nice for tapping any first strike threats that would prevent Spark Trooper from doing his thing.

Handy for Orzhov lock-down in Limited.

Flavor text is spot on. This card is a perfect fit with detain cards, and even somewhat synergistic with battalion, in that it is easier to swing with three creatures when the opponent can't block.

3/5. Solid body for the mana and the etb ability allows you to lock down one of your opponent's creatures.

If they pushed this fool to 1White he probably would have snuck into Standard playability. Oh well.

i agree; assemble the legion would be an amazing combo with her.

Seems really strong for limited, good in mono white pauper, serviceable in pauper cube. Makes Boros work.

I think this is a decent card. In my experience it combos well with Captain of the Watch.

It's pretty interesting to see an aggressive tapper for a change. With that in consideration, I think that Boros will probably like this card more than Orzhov. Regardless of guild, I think I still want it in limited.

Works well with both Azorius (lockdown) and Boros (lots of creatures). I like it!

I really love this card. She's one of the stars of my (admittedly casual and weird) tap-creature-based goat deck. She combines amazingly with Springjack Shepherd to tap every creature you don't control, at which point you can swing for face with Gideon's Avenger, Crusader of Odric, or even large numbers of buffed goats. Add in Conjurer's Closet to get more goats every turn, Gideon's Lawkeeper for control until you can build the combo and you've got something which actually works pretty well (at least, in the relatively casual circles I play in).

I've had some fun with this, Akroan Horse is a kind of special note for synergy as the token soldiers will come into play on the opponents turn tapping down potential attackers. Any other instant speed token production is likewise very powerful paired up with this.
