i dissagree, myself i find choosing uncommon cards to be the hardest task most of the time since there is so many good ones. Using recruits and gems to build wall i am also a bit reluctant towards since thats what you will be lacking in most decks.
Seeing how this card has no keyword, costs wanted resoruces, is neither super offensive nor super defensive i find it a must for it to be really cost efficient or it is just garbage. (still haven't seen many use it)
