    Right? It's funny, cause it seems like as a 1g it would have been a balanced but very usable card with some applications here and there. As it stands, it's incredibly powerful at that rate, and considered almost broken. Not on that "2 card combo" level, but just SO much value for a single green. Something to consider, different colors have mana available at different rates... So a Green 2 mana card is maybe as easy to cast as a blue or white 1 mana card, if that makes sense.

    Correction on carpet of flowers: the card has been errata'd to state "At the beginning of each of your main phases, if you haven’t added mana with this ability this turn, you may add X mana of any one color, where X is the number of Islands target opponent controls.", so you can only add the mana once per turn, but you can choose which main phase to add the mana.

    Rancor holds a special place in my heart for being all around perfect. It's an aura that solves the weakness of the card type, gives a valuable keyword to creatures in its color identity and even some attack to make use of it all without being too oppressive or bloated. Not to mention the fantastic name, art and flavour.

    So, that's the kind of card that would make one of my "Most Overpowered" Lists, but it just can't compete when looking at competitive data. It is no doubt powerful, and had to be banned once upon a time because it was part of so many good two-card combos. Also, it's not banned in Vintage and no one plays it, and many think it would be fine to unban in Legacy. Most think the only reason it remains banned there is because it's on the reserved list.

Also the fact that Rancor, a COMMON, makes the top 10 best Green Enchantments proves the point.
