    Since you say you're somewhat new, something that hasn't been mentioned yet is that rarity also plays into the cost/benefit of similar cards. You can find various instances where two cards do the same thing, but the casting cost is different and reflected in the rarity (how often you pull the card in a pack/box). While the cards so far discussed above have all been commons, more variation in similar concepts comes through with cards of other rarity, such as say the Gigantosausur, still being "vanilla" but cheaper and much bigger, and also rare. But note that as TheOnlyOne652089 mentioned, it's color cost is also harder to reach with five green.
