The main reason it isn't quite as high on the list, compared to the other two "Bonder" creatures on this list, is that while flash is more common in this set than in others, there isn't quite enough to make this one shine over, for instance, menace or flying
A handful make use of half mana, and the sets typically feature uncommon creature types like clams, donkeys, or beebles
It will have power and toughness equal to the number of sacrificed Forests, but this is wildly infeasible

Honourable Mentions Kor Skyfisher Preordain Qasali Pridemage Phyrexian Rager Quirion Ranger Arcane Denial The Vivid Lands Beast Within Figure of Destiny Brainstorm Shriekmaw Think Twice Lighthouse Chronologist Student of Warfare Izzet Charm Muldrifter See Beyond As you look over the top ten list and this selection of cards that didn't quite make it you probably notice some distinct themes
The most likely outcome of this is that a casual finds The One Ring, thinks its neat, and then never thinks about it again
