This makes a lot of movement options less viable.  If the enemy is standing at the far edge of spike growth, for example you have to circle around behind him to push him into it with repelling blast.  Ensnaring strike requires a bonus action and more importantly gets a save.  Further that save is with advantage on a large creature.  There no save on grasping arrow, it is automatic.  This is a BIG difference.Both Spike Growth and Ensnaring Strike also require concentration.  Finally Grasping Arrow is not a spell, so aside from the fact you do not need to concentrate, I could hit the same enemy with a second Grasping Arrow on the very same turn and essentially double everything and require 2 saves to break free.</blockquote>
