Todays M13 card to rate is... Crusader of Odric  Spoiler:
Show
5.0: First pick no matter what pack.
4.5: First pick pack 1.
4.0: I will strongly consider playing this as the only card of its color.
3.5: I feel a strong pull into this card’s color.
3.0: This card makes me want to play this color.
2.5: Several cards of this power level start to pull me to this color.
2.0: Should generally make the deck if in this color.
1.5: Decent filler.
1.0: 23rd card if you have to.
0.5: This card will sometimes be sideboarded in.
0.0: I will never put this card into my deck (main deck or after sideboarding).
I think that this gal is pretty awesome. She did a lot of work in my 2 black/white exalted decks I drafted. Also she is relatively cheap and can get huge. 2.5 Discuss!

2.5 sounds about right. Not gonna draw me into white on its own, but it's pretty good.
Those who fear the darkness have never seen what the light can do.
I've seen angels fall from blinding heights.
But you yourself are nothing so divine.
Just next in line.

Ummm... have you seen how big this guy is on average? And that's not counting cards like Captain's Call  that can be used to boost it. It's got to be at least a 3.

I don't have a ton of experience playing this card, but I did have success playing against it. Combat math and decisions can get tricky because the Crusader can die at the end of turn when another of their creatures dies at end of turn. I never wanted to let it stick on the battlefield too long, but killing it was never a big problem.
2.5 seems right.

I think it's a three. There are some decks that she isn't that good in, those decks are usually a little subpar already though.

It depends on your deck. If you're aggro, she's damn good. Not so much if you're controlling and need your 3 drop to block immediately.
1000th post November 26, 2010. Where Islands gets his decks: Spoiler:
Show
It was revealed to me in a dream. All the cards were in my dream except for three slots which I plugged in as Vault Skirge.
FULL DISCLOSURE: The dream was post AVR so there was a copy of Slayer's Stronghold. I decided to keep it pre AVR in my post here.
EDIT: I just remembered. The Skirges might have been 2x Whipflare and 1x something else, probably War and Peace.
EDIT2: Currently 4-0 in my first four games with this. My opponents have been very angry. I fought off a Wurmcoil from Grixis for six turns before I found my second Dispatch. Jeez, I can do a lot of damage.
EDIT3: Streak broken. Lost to an unexpected Overrun.  Cracking a Shrine for 10 wasn't enough.

that kinda freaked me out

2.5. She's not hard to make into a good threat, but she's still a little inconsistent.
