The quintessential Wall. One of the best because it's so cheap.

Yes...be at war and feel its justice. All 0 points of it.

Very {W} flavour, although personally I think for the larger investment of {1}{W}{U} Wall of Denial is better, although for {1}{W} this card is still pretty decent.

Agreed, the flavour text doesn't fit the 0 power, although most walls have 0 power, wish more of them didn't.

I quite like the picture for this one compared to the other Angelic Walls. If I ever had need to use it, I might try to track down the ones from this set. "If" being the key term here....

Anyways, it's interesting that due to the way the Portal cards were printed, the wall's restriction didn't take the form of reminder text but rather rules text. It had the static ability "Walls can't attack"! Of course that wasn't what was intended (and this little bit of rules obscura has since been swept away with the advent of Defender) but R&D's Secret Lair is always there to save the day. It keeps all of your opponent's changelings from attacking! Change the wall's creature type and you can send that bloodthirsty 0/4 charging in ("feel its justice!)" The possibilities are endless!

I like the Portal version the best.
