The risk here is that turn three is too late to have a 2/2, but the ability to potentially exile enemy threats could tip things into making this card a bit of a monster
Knight of the Mists (Mirage/Visions/Weatherlight) Visions gave all of the colors a lot of great 187 creatures - creatures which had comes-into-play effects
If you exiled a nonland card this way, create a Treasure token. More creatures is good, and Treasure tokens are famously absurd, so this seems like a great card in Lost Caverns of Ixalan
However, if you choose to pay the bargain cost by sacrificing an artifact, enchantment, or token card, you can take those two creatures you found and put them directly onto the battlefield
