Cycling those lands and then bringing them back to cycle again on the following turn is some pretty neat interaction

You can also make chains, like casting Bruna, the Fading Light to bring back Sun Titan, which in turn gets a smaller creature

And if you have any cards at all in your deck that pump things, even just little Noble Hierarch, you'll get even more mileage out of trample

Protective spells can be lumped into two broad categories: spells that protect a single creature or permanent (Tamiyo's Safekeeping, Slip Out the Back) and cards that protect your entire board (Teferi's Protection, Heroic Intervention)

It may not be what every deck is looking for, however, since the card itself doesnt do very much on its own
