While it provides a nice boost with bolster 2 and can help control the opponent's creatures during attacks, there are potentially better options like Anafenza, Kin-Tree Spirit or Abzan Falconer that offer more versatile abilities and synergies in similar decks. Elite Scaleguard could see play as a budget option or as a situational tech card in certain metagames.
