don't know why it's the top rated. It's alright but definately not the best.

An absolutely perfect card in all respects. Its synergy in a cycling deck that includes Astral Slide is a beautiful thing to witness, even from the other (losing) side of the table. In fact, it may be one of the most beautiful decks I've ever had the pleasure to play any deck against, and is certainly in the back of my mind as an inspiration whenever I get into the deck-making mood. All thanks in part to this card here.
I like it when Wizards prints cheap creatures that, rather than following in the footsteps of the powercreep mascot Vampire Nighthawk, actually make the player think about what they might best synergize with (you know, besides mama-ramp engines to play them or other beat-sticks of their kind). Creatures like
Surrakar Spellblade
Vedalken Mastermind
Mentor of the Meek
Creatures that do unique and moderately exploitable things (though we should avoid broken... (see all)

This card languishes on the not-yet-reprinted list, while blue gets more and more broken cards every year.

In EDH, very interesting because it allows for repetition. In 60-card formats, incredibly good because it amplifies the redundancy of your deck quite powerfully. I use her in my Zoo deck because one, she's a body, and two, she often rebuys a countered Ranger of Eos, a slightly used Path to Exile, or a fetchland so I can continue making land drops to power out a cat and goblin rush with Ghostway backup.

My favorite use for Eternal Witness is snagging back my Profane Command in my B/G EDH deck that features a lot of ramp. Then I can sac Eternal Witness to High Market or Grim Backwoods or something similar, and Profane Command to kill a creature or burn someone, and reanimate the Witness, of course grabbing back the Profane Command again. It's certainly not the most efficient use of this fantastically versatile little gal, but that silly synergy has won me more games than it probably should have.
