For two mana you get a vanilla 1/1. For five mana you get Phantom Warrior. After you sink a whopping eleven mana into it you're gonna want more than a 3/3, regardless of shroud and unblockable. You could be casting Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre.
Granted, you could get it up there on three mana alone, but if a 3/3 is all you've got out after five turns (if your luck craps on you and you only pull three lands after 5 turns), then you're in trouble. Every other leveller is better than this, as are the majority of the cards in the set.

Costs too much to level, but far from the worst one.

@ Vedalken Arbiter
Probably because that creature would either be severly overpowered or a 1/1 for 5 or more, and thus be completely useless
