Pridemage is powerful. Not feared. It is the same way that FoW, Daze, and Swords are powerful, but not feared. Ad Nauseum, Ill-Gotten Gains, Empty the Warrens; these cards are feared, and when they are played, they beg to be answered or they will cause a win. Pridemage is an excellent creature with a low mana cost relative to his abilities. He does not, however, qualify as a scary guy. Compare the average Legacy players reactions to most creatures on these lists (Progenitus, Iona, Dreadnought, etc.) with their reaction to Pridemage. The latter might be "Damn, a pridemage." It will not be on par with "....well, that's gg" or a capslockon cuss.
