Sorcery    (CMC:3)

If you have less life than an opponent, you gain 6 life. If you control fewer creatures than an opponent, put three 1/1 white Soldier creature tokens onto the battlefield.

The gods are not always kind, but they do have a soft spot for plucky underdogs.

You compare life totals with each of your opponents when Timely Reinforcements resolves. At that time, if you have less life than an opponent, you'll gain 6 life. Similarly, you compare the number of creatures you control with the number of creatures each opponent controls when Timely Reinforcements resolves.
