@GrimjawxRULES: No, it's not. This won't get a reduced cost if you run any nonbasic lands, unlike Wilt-Leaf Cavaliers, who will always cost the same. Also, Cavaliers can be run in a green deck, and could (every now and then) benefit from opposing Elvish Champions and things.
Everyone stop fly the 'strictly better' banner unless you learn what it means first. 'Strictly better' means better in pretty much every way. Now, this can ignore types (For example, Hill Giant and Roc of Kher Ridges), but sometimes even that can come into effect. Hill Giant might be better than Roc in your deck if it uses some Giant tribal.
Garruk's Companion is not a strictly better Grizzly Bears, because of the casting cost difference. {G}{G} can be far different from {1}{G}. For example, Grizzly Bears will become a 2/2 for {G} if something like Hel... (see all)

The best one from the Affinity Golem cycle, in my opinion.
In a simple monowhite deck with Plains only it's a 3/4 vigilant body for 
or even less mana.
The downside is that it can get shattered, but on the other hand it's also able to block creatures with fear (or intimidate).

Strictly better than Wilt-Leaf Cavaliers if you're not going tribal.
