Direct damage is only part of the benefit to the ability. Menace is a really good for forcing beneficial trades, especially if it’s getting +1/+0. It’s not great removal, but in an aggro deck that’s looking to trade aggressively already, it’s usually just pure upside.

Anything entering with a role procs it so it might happen more than you’d think in the right draft deck
But even when it happens, the effect you’re getting is just menace. I feel like you can probably get better and more reliable evasion than that?
I don’t draft much, so maybe I’m the idiot here.

Maybe? Depends on the whole set. It’s definitely not a constructed card
