At first this looks overpowered, but it might actually be reasonable, by the standards of Accorder Paladin and Porcelain Legionnaire.

Reasonable by the standards of "Ok, I've copied this card, and depowered it THREE TIMES and it's still overpowered to the extent of being broken"?

Ahem. Let's just say that this is somewhat good and leave it there, shall we?

(FWIW, your 3/1 first strike for 2R probably suffered from a) being in an extremely small set, smaller even than New Phyrexia, and thus way more common than the Legionnaire; b) being one of several common first strikers in red, so an army of them is more likely to dominate the ground; c) being playtested along with your wacky deathtouch-granting mythic. Porcelain Legionnaire is very, very good, but it's not broken.)

Hasn't "If you see it coming, then you're not its next meal." already been used as flavor text?

Dunno if that's been used or not yet Dude, but I don't think it matters since that's not what the card says. :-)

It sounds better though.
