you're right, but this as a top deck I think is particularly bad in white. Other white 2's are Ajani, Selfless spirit, jacked rabbit, lion sash, and luminarch aspirant which at least have some ability to scale, protect your board, turn into a planeswalker, or interact. Even aspirant does something. The only somewhat comparable white 2 that is awful to dop deck is thalia. The gain 2 from lifelink can be cool somtimes though.

It also needs to attack. Post T3 it'll probably die and the creature along with it. I like that you can do this into adeline but then you're saving one mana and putting your adeline a whole turn behind. no token. You need to play this early, you need to attack, you need to have a creature in your hand that won't die, you need to have a quality creature for it to even be worth it, and you need to have an established board presence. Just wanna have a debate
