Butch DeLoria, Tunnel Snake

The named ability is the tell that this is a lord for a tribe that mostly does not exist. Rogues have a scattered history and Snakes are thinner still, so the attack trigger's payoff floats between "kicker on a two-mana beater" and "genuine threat," depending entirely on the board you assemble. The clever part is that the card refuses to wait for the tribe to show up: the activated ability manufactures its own support, stamping a menace counter on another creature and grafting the Rogue type onto it. That does double duty, converting a random attacker into a fresh Rogue (which raises Butch's own +1/+1 count on the next swing) while also making that creature harder to block. The self-buff is strictly personal: the attack trigger pumps Butch and no one else, so the deck is not an anthem shell but a single-threat escalation. What the activation spreads across the board is evasion, not stats, since the menace counter follows the creature you targeted rather than the whole team. The body already dodges single blockers with menace of its own, so each activation compounds the problem for the defender: more attackers they cannot chump one-for-one, and a growing lord whose personal size scales with the very Rogues it keeps minting. It is a self-contained ramp toward a lethal solo swing dressed as a tribal payoff, leaning on the activated ability precisely because the tribe it names cannot be counted on to fill a deck on its own.
