Todays GTC card to rate is... Boros Charm  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).
This card is awesome. Both in constructed and limited. All of the abilities can be very useful and I consider this to be the best charm of the entire lot including RTR charms. 3.5 Discuss!

3.5 sure. It's so good I want to rank it higher, but it's not necessarily a bomb.

2.5. Simic Charm  curb-stomps this in Limited and it's not really splashable (though I guess Gruul would appreciate it).

I'll split the difference and say 3.0. I like all of the modes, but I'm not sure any one of them is a standout. But Boros being what it is I think that mode 1 will be used the most often.

I think 3 and this is neither as strong as Simic or Orzhov in limited (Orzhov being the best I think for the kill any creature ability).

4.0 I will try to get this into any deck I can. In Boros it's great and as an aside I splashed two of these in my Gruul prerelease and they were absolutely lethal.
I love this card!
bulletd Guidelines: 5.0: I will take this card no matter what. Creature 1 or playable 1 or hate 1. Domri Rade  4.5: Bomb and splashable. Creature 1-2, playable 1-2, removal 1. Obzedat, Ghost Council  4.0: Excellent first pick first pack, will sway me into same colors. Creatures 1-4, removal 1. Rubblehulk  3.5: Excellent first pack pick two, will confirm colors or possibly sway into second color. Ground Assault  3.0: Good in-color addition, or splashable removal/creature. Creatures 3-9, removal 1-3. Kingpin's Pet  2.5: Solid pick in-color; creatures 5-12, removal 3-5. Mugging  2.0: Creatures 10-16; removal 6-7. Act of Treason  1.5: My 23rd or 22nd card, depending on removal. Gutter Skulk  1.0: 23rd card if I don't maindeck an additional land. Mental Vapors  0.5: This card will sometimes be sideboarded in.

This is 4.0 material simply because of the "Creatures you control are indestructible until end of turn." THe other two abilities are occasionally relevant, but that one just makes it hell to stabilize against a quick start.

I'd say this is better than just a middle of the pack pick, and this card is never going to table anyways....which pretty much tells you its better than a 2.5
I can agree with 3.5 in that, it would always be a very early pick, and if i'm playing gruul, boros, or MAYBE orzhov, i'd want to try to play it. Even if I cut the card, its an easy hate pick.
I can't see 4+ as 4.0 means its a first pick every time...and there's no way in hell i'd pick this over aurelia or her fury, or any other number of bombs in this set.

I saw this done once: he attack with a 3/1 and a 2/1, and the opponent let it through (and has no mana), the guy spend 5 mana scorchwalker  the 3/1 + boros charm, and proceed to win in one shot.

That's NOT what 4.0 means...that's what 5.0 means.
