­Thatcher Revolt as an X spell. Alternatively, Firecat Blitz but without flashback and requiring a second colour of mana. It's an instant, I suppose, but that's not very much use...

Dunno; this is usable as a defence trick. Which isn't usually as useful as an offence trick, but it seems a legitimate variation.

I was going to say that Firecat Blitz tells us this could cost {x}{r} and be fine... but yeah... something about making a bunch of blocking creatures kind of changes the card. It's strange... I don't think the card is great, but I have no idea how to make it cheaper without it getting busted.

Or maybe this analogy is better? Searing Spear:Blaze::Thatcher Revolt:Rouse the Survivors if it wasn't an instant and cost {x}{1}{r}. As an instant, the {1} becomes {w}. Hmm...

It also triggers death triggers (which Firecat Blitz did not do), as well as pumping any creatures with the {r}{w} ability Rally (Eager Recruit). It could probably be an uncommon, honestly.
