Not enough white creature to combo them with. If it was any creature, then 4/5 rating probably.

This was part of a premade deck that I regret buying. It was blue and white. Basically the strategy of the deck was to not play spells and then try to win with Soramaro. It was pretty easy to not play spells though, since the moonfolk and kitsune in the deck had no support to actually do anything helpful in play. This guy just defends for a turn and bounces himself, I guess.

This and the Captain of the Watch, combined with Veteran's Arments and/or Pennon Blade could be be a neat combo. Add Kor Duelist for a steadlily growing, double hitting blocker and attacker.
The backside would of course be the pretty cost of the captain. Six mana every turn might seem a bit costly, but on the other hand you'll get three additional soldiers every turn. And if you get tired of bouncing the captain, just bounce back one of the tokens instead.
Every color has a ton of good "enters the battlefield" creatures. Trusted Adviser is so cheap it's a natural combo piece, whereas the others are more of "cheap beat-down cards with possibly-advantageous disadvantages", but make no mistake that these are all potential engine cards in decks built around them.
add in a soul warden and you've got an even better deal. fiend hunter and flickerwhisp champion of the parish changeling hero and saltskitter suddenly become attractive combined with this.
