The same mana cost, color identity, even the same type. Willow Dryad and Shanodin Dryads are bundled together because they’re the same card. It comes below the other 1/1s because this is noticeably more expensive since it’s never seen a reprint. It comes in last because a 1/1 for one generally isn’t a desirable card, even with evasion like this. Zodiac Rabbit is an adorable card from Portal Three Kingdoms and is one of several Zodiac cards with Forestwalk.
It’s also universal, and giving everybody else’s creatures Forestwalk can backfire, especially if you’re playing EDH and not everyone in the pod is green. It costs a lot of mana, and it’s a pretty intensive mana cost at that. There are a few blanket ways to give your creatures Forestwalk on this list, but Hidden Path has two glaring weaknesses keeping it down here. None of them are particularly large, but a 3/3 for five with mediocre evasion just isn’t worth it. Of the many French vanilla creatures with Forestwalk, this is the worst.

Seven mana for a 5/5 isn’t good, and giving it Forestwalk reduces its power and has an extra mana investment. Veldrane of Sengir just costs so much mana at every turn. If this had snowwalk in general it might be decent, but this is impressively unplayable. Rime Dryad narrows it even further by only walking over Snow-Covered Forests.
