Okay, so it doesn't seem that bad right off the bat. I mean, making your opponent's creatures no-longer-unblockable seems like a good plan most of the time. But what would you say if I were to tell you that there are only four creatures in the history of Magic that were printed with plainswalk? And I'm pretty sure that no one wants to play with cards like this one in any non-joke deck they can think of. Two of these cards weren't even printed until long after Great Wall even existed! In short, this is one Great Wall that the Mongolians didn't even bother noticing, unlike that other one, which they... actually, they didn't take notice of that one much either. But I'm sure they noticed this one even less.

When has a creature with plainswalk ever been a problem? Even if it gets the ability in a weird way, pretty much every creature ever that could gain the ability on its own is bad. Even giving it to creatures in other ways seems like a waste of a card slot.
99.9% of the time, Great Wall reads "2W: Put an enchantment with no text onto the battlefield." And on the odd case your opponent is playing his Ultimate Jank Legends Block deck with a certain white creature as the centerpiece, you're better off just playing like a real man and killing the problem.
Now, someone find me something the Mongols can't ignore.
