was a serra angel reprint, now it's this

want a recurring human generator at uncommon, and i got rid of the last one. possibly too strong?

i think this is a neat way to design around the "if it dealt no combat damage last turn" rider drawback

changed the tap trigger to only work on weenies

card was too strong, and feedback said that the card incentivised you to use the ability offensively rather than balancing that against creating untap triggers. this makes the card less powerful, balances the decision more and fits into the flavour of the angel cowing weenie humans

added 'alone' rider to attack trigger

ties into the lone attacker subtheme, and more explicitly nudges players towards the flavour payoff of shoving all your prayers into an angel and smashing face, then getting a bunch of new converts for your trouble

changed tap ability from power to toughness, made token gen max out at 1 per turn

fixes based on feedback. rules text is weird now, i'll need to think about a better way to word it

changing from power to toughness is because blinding barrier couldn't make the block, and token gen got out of hand
