I really don't understand why the rating is as low as it is...

@damnearkilliner: Rancor is nothing like Spirit Mantle. Rancor is a one drop Aura that gives something +2/+0 and Trample that you regain when the creature you cast this on dies. Spirit Mantle is a two drop Aura that gives +1/+1 and protection from creatures. Both are excellent cards, but you can't say one is strictly better than the other since the only thing they have in common is a subtype.
If you still want to argue that they can be compared, then remember that Rancor gives you card advantage, since it goes back to your hand unless your opponent wastes removal on it; it can be cast on anything without fear while the Mantle is best cast on Hexproof creatures.

@Lord_Skoonie
Rancor is still only safe to cast on a hexproof creature or when they have no mana open. If someone kills your creature in response to you casting Rancor, you lose Rancor. Sure, it's better than a standard aura by far, but Rancor isn't as hard to remove as many people think it is. And if you argue that they have to "waste" a removal spell to get rid of it, the same thing applies to killing a creature enchanted with a standard aura like Spirit Mantle.
