I think all these wisps are underrated.

a good card, but I would recommend Mask of Riddles instead

well one mana to make a creature possibly unblockable and draw a card is a very nice effect indeed...though there are better cards to use I'm afraid

It's still a nice little cantrip . Good in an aggro control green/black, like on a Collosus or something.

Very nice and versatile. Not just for the cheap draw and unblockable, but also for protection against black removal like doom blade.

When used with Soul Reap, you can kill greens and get the bonus damage. Plus you draw a card.

Not terrible. The cantrip negates the loss of card advantage.

It helps you to protect your non-black creatures from Doom Blade... so according to a gatherer comments, this must be clearly 5/5!

Seriously... it can protect your creatures sometimes, but it's much more preferable in synergy with cards like Contaminated Ground

Cycle a card and a creature gets immunity to Doomblade, or can block fear, or can get evasion, at instant speed? This card is great in artifact decks since Go for the Throat is locked down, and so too will be Doomblade. Dropping this on Blightsteel Colossus negates almost all colored blockers.

Surprisingly good for B/G aggro infect. Makes that turn 1 Glistener Elf a lot scarier.

This card is really great for a common!
Like Leap, this is a one-mana creature boost common which gives evasion and is substituted by another card.

I love this card in combination with Precursor Golem. For 1 black, assuming you have no other golems on the table, nets you 3 cards, avoids Doom Blade (and being artifacts avoid Go For the Throat), and can let you possibly swing for 9 unblockable.

The only fear-granting card that wouldn't be functionally changed if it granted intimidate instead.
