Anyone know why this card is a Rare or what it can be used well with?

Great card. Why the hell is it white?

It's white because it's apocalypse. :-) This card is very nice. Seems so random but it is ultimative. The regeneration protects it from most burn spells and protection from green makes it a great blocker against fatties.

Awesome card, throw a soul link on this guy and you are good. Plus pro-green thats even better. One of the best cards in the Invasion block.

Green got the biggest fatty, so pro-green makes the lynx pretty much immune to them. With regeneration, red cannot kill it effectively. A 2/1 for two with above abilities, this card is well worth the price and its rare status. Equipment and enchantments only make it even more deadly.

This is pretty nuts. Rares like this normally have p/t as 1/1, but not this guy.
I smell a lynx tribal deck with this and steppe lynx...

@land_comment It doesn't really "stop" Terra Stomper because he has trample. You would still be taking six damage.

It's Drudge Skeletons, except with +1/+0 and Protection from green!
The only "price" you pay is miniscule; you have to go multicolored to make full use of it. As a 2/1 pro-green for , it's already playable; add regeneration for a mere and it's great. Simple, elegant, and powerful without being broken at all.

@midnightvenom No it would stop the damage from terra stomper because it has protection from green. Protection means that it prevents the damage means it would stop the creature from being able to do da,age in general.

This card was originally called Spirit Lynx. However, since it didn't have the "Spirit Link" ability (now called lifelink) and development did not want to add it to the card, the name was changed at the last minute. - Via Mark Rosewater, Drive to Work #91

This thing can stop a terra stomper, krosan cloudscraper, Gloomgape (I think that's how it's spelled) and lots of others.
5/5.
