Call for Unity
This is a card with a couple of facets to
assess. It wants to boost lots of creatures at
once, but it would get stronger if some of those
creatures were to die. It has a fairly high mana
cost, but wants to go with the sort of decks
that swarm in the early game. Those sorts of
contradictions are not usually what people look
for in the more competitive-oriented Glorious
Anthem variants, but they are excellent for a
setting where you build to a big, and preferably
hilarious, finish. I'd look for things like
Nantuko Husk and Magus of the Abyss, personally.

Call for Unity (3/7)
Another of the Revolt cards that needs a turn to
really get going, the difference between Call
for Unity and other cards of its ilk is that it
can have an immediate impact on your opponent's
turn. +1/+1 to all of your creatures is
powerful, indeed, and it can scale out of hand
very quickly once it gets going!
It's a five mana enchantment, which makes it
awkward in terms of wanting to finish opponents
quickly, but it's a potent finisher for
creature-heavy decks. Definitely worth
consideration, but I don't know if the timing
for getting it out will let you close games out
with it. In Limited, though, run it; it's nearly
impossible to break once you get one counter on
it.
