It's a flying 2/2 for 1W. How is that not good? I get that maybe counters can be a drawback, but hell, it's a flying bear!

Around the casual table, there's always that one guy who plays with an enchantment-heavy deck. You want to be able to deal with him, but you don't want to have to tweak your deck every time you play him. Cards like this help you do that: it's not the most efficient 1/1 flier, and it's certainly not the most efficient disenchant, but it can do either reasonably well depending on your situation. I actually prefer to run this over Disenchant in a casual deck for that reason.

It's a 1/1 btw. And I'm pretty sure that's a deer, not a bear.
It's not bad, since a 1/1 flyer for 2 mana is playable, while it's potential as reusable enchantment destruction is there (if you slip on a few more +1/+1 counters on it). But, for the most part, it's just not worth much more than its art.
Which is adorable.

Pretty sure this art is pulled from a Lisa Frank notebook
The one good thing about this card is that it has a useful tribe. But even then, there are better cards to run if you are playing elementals, even for the sideboard. If you can somehow manage to increase the +1/+1 counters on it for free, it may become more useful. Perhaps with Forced Adaptation or Mikaeus, the Lunarch. But again, that's more cards you need to make this useful, which is still pretty bad =/
Perhaps it can have a home in a highly specialized, direct-counter deck for enchantments, maybe Zur the Enchanter decks...

If it cost {1} or {2} more and came with 2 counters I would be more happy with it. As it is, 1/1 fliers do very little. For the most part, your opponent can just hold his stuff in hand until it dies, unless you're willing to pay {3}{W} for a sorcery-speed disenchant.

Cogspin has the right idea people. Mediocre, versatile cards are staples in casual play, where often sideboards are frowned upon. This is a 1/1 flying for 2, which is on the curve, not miles above it like any card that sees serious play, but it is a maindeck answer to enchantments. Hell, some Johnny might even run it with proliferate, which either boosts it or gives it more charges of disenchant.

This is immediately having a deck built around it.
