Rime Dryad is a 1/3 for one green mana with forestwalk — passable stats, irrelevant evasion in most games. Unless your opponent is reliably running Forests, this does nothing a better one-drop couldn't do.

In Commander, Rime Dryad is fringe at best — forestwalk only matters when an opponent controls a Forest, and even in green-heavy metas you're counting on the right opponent at the right time. Pauper is where Rime Dryad has the most plausible home, since mono-green stompy lists exist and the format's slower pace lets 1/3 bodies contribute, though it still faces stiff competition for the one-drop slot. Legacy and Vintage are legal but irrelevant — the bar for one-mana creatures is stratospheric and Rime Dryad clears none of it.
