Pterafractyl (SOS)

Creature — Dinosaur Fractal

Flying This creature enters with X +1/+1 counters on it. When this creature enters, you gain 2 life.

Niche ramp payoff for +1/+1 counter strategies, but the life gain is marginal and the mana cost is prohibitively expensive for what amounts to a flying body. Better alternatives exist in both tempo and midrange shells where you're already investing in X spells or counter synergies.
