But wishing well isn't a crappy card!
Scout certainly is, and in most wishing well decks I don't think I'd bother picking it up, but if it's going to be useful at all, it's worth considering. Keep in mind that it can set up two wishing wells, and if you're doing it right probably some of the revealed cards will be wishing wells, and now you're well on your way to making it all the way through your deck instead of fizzling out right away.
