1/1 seems small for an Angel, but the bonus quickly brings it into the right range. Then you notice that it's at least 5 flying power for 5 mana, which used to be extremely efficient for white.

Heh. Yes, this isn't intended to be the new Baneslayer :)

Interesting to compare with Geist-Honored Monk. Looks like I was pretty close.

I did originally want this card to be a */* for artifacts, but that didn't work well with it not being an artifact itself. If you cast it on an empty board, it'd die before the tokens arrived, which is not a pleasant situation.

Yeah, costing / creatures and token-making creatures is hard, there's not much baseline, I'm pleased to see we've all got several right on target recently :)

I know what you mean about */*: somehow it looks better than 1/1. I suppose you could get the tokens when you cast the spell, but that would be weird.

Yup. For a while I had this as an "As ~ ETBs" ability, but that was even weirder; in the end I gave up and made it 1/1.

LOL. I see what you mean. It's not really a triggered ability, in spirit it's one creature card that comes in three bodies, so naturally they enter together. But I agree that probably can't be made to work naturally in the rules :)
