Todays final GTC card to rate is...

Aurelia, the Warleader

 Spoiler: Show

5.0
: First pick no matter what.  I will always play this card.
4.5
: Splashable and first pick worthy.
4.0
: First pick pack 1.
3.5
: Early pick though not always a first pick.
3.0
: Solid early/mid pick.
2.5
: Solid pick in 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).


She is legit that's for sure.  She is very powerful and should be a very high pick.  Not the easiest to splash though.

Legend -- wait for it -- dary! But I agree the casting difficulty drops it to 4.

Casting cost is very prohibitive and she has a suprisingly small body for a Legendary Angel. That effect and those keywords are real good though.

4. I played against a deck with three of those in the prerelease. You are very often dead to Aurelia against Boros.

No, the rest of his deck was pretty mediocre. I think we were both 1-2 (this was my "Dimir" prerelease)

From my experience playing sealed, unless you had an orzhov/dimir godhand and effed their whole board, Aurelia is usually a turn 6 win

4.5

If this pops up, I'm grabbing it, and probably going into Boros (hopefully the rest of the pool gets my signals) unless there's something else extraordinary that gets passed to me in the next few picks.
