Twinblade Blessing
2 It's a little bit clunky, but it can usually help your creature win combat or do lethal out of nowhere, and it offers a buff that makes most creatures problematic.

Strongbox Raider
2.5 Triggering Raid on this makes it a very nice 2-for-1, but a 4-mana 5/2 is otherwise abyssmal.

Fleeting Flight
2 This is a solid trick, it'll win combat most of the time and has the "oops I win" upside of sending your big creature into the air.

Witness Protection
1 This is a removal spell that gives you less than a 1-for-1. Leaving a 1/1 creature around is brutal since it can still attack and block, and if you have any X/1s it can be super miserable.

2.5 This is always a solid Limited creature. It's certainly not a full-blown 2-for-1, but it gets a card up front and then you have a body around to block or sacrifice.

1.5 It's temping to imagine bouncing an entire alpha strike, but that won't happen very often. Can feel good in response to combat tricks, but if that's not the case, you're going down a card and your opponent isn't.

An Offer You Can't Refuse
