I think deserves a little discusion because a) It is really powerful in the right deck. b)It offers an effect few cards do and the card represent a design philosophy that predates Modern Magic and c) I have seen zero attempts at trying to exploit this card.
Granted, there are some issues in the current format: Infect can play around it unless being hellbent, Affinity can ignore it with Ornitopters and Jund has Abrupt Decay for it; nevertheless, that's what the rest of the cards are for.
Which is your favorite shell for Ensnaring Bridge? Mine would be a Life from the Loam deck. Worm Harvest is a bit slow but can serve as a wincon by drawing a single card.
