Balduvian Berserker
Enlist and a death-trigger are two mechanics built around the same question: how do you get a creature's power to matter twice? This design answers it by stacking them. On offense, enlist lets the 1/3 body borrow power from a nonattacking creature, so a defensive stat line briefly hits like a threat while the tapped creature does the pushing. Then the second half collects on the other end: whatever power the Berserker carries when it dies gets flung at any target, which means the enlist boost is not just a combat bonus but a stored payload. Send it into a bigger blocker after enlisting, and the trade becomes a burn spell aimed wherever you like. The tension is deliberate. Enlist only inflates power until end of turn, so the death-damage rewards you for cashing the creature out the same turn you pumped it, ideally by picking a fight it loses. Sacrifice effects reach the same window from the other direction, converting the borrowed power into damage on your terms rather than the blocker's. It is a modest common that hides a small combo inside two abilities that look unrelated: one lends power, the other spends it, and the whole thing is built so those two moments can happen in a single attack step.
