The flash bounce-and-gain-life trigger is the part everyone reads first, but the load-bearing design lives in the second ability: a repeatable draw-two engine fueled by discarding legendary cards. That is a narrow cost dressed up as a generic one. In a two-color shell it asks you to run enough legends (or a stack of legendary artifacts and lands) that pitching one to refuel is a live line rather than a dead clause, and it turns the surplus of a legend-dense build into fresh cards. The enters-the-battlefield trigger is the connective tissue: flash lets you protect a creature at instant speed by returning it to hand, dodging removal or resetting an enters trigger you want to fire again, and banking life proportional to that creature's mana value. Both halves pull toward the same deckbuilding question. A 2/1 body this fragile does not want to attack; it wants to sit back, bounce a value creature to hand on the opponent's turn, and then, once the board is stable, convert a redundant legend into two cards every turn. What looks like a value creature with a bounce trigger is really a slow card-advantage engine gated behind a specific density of legendary permanents, with the flash and the life gain buying the time to get the engine online.
