Crazed Goblin

Cheap red one-drops have always paid for their bodies with a downside, and this one pays in lost choice: the 1/1 cannot decline a swing once it is able, which strips out the defensive flexibility even a vanilla goblin keeps. The forced-attack clause is the whole transaction. It turns the creature into a strictly forward-facing threat rather than a body with options, and that compulsion is the same lever red has always used to pressure opposing blockers and walkers: a creature that always attacks is a creature that always asks the opponent a question, whether or not its controller wants to ask it. The clause stops being a pure drawback and starts being a constraint someone might court when it meets effects that punish or reward attackers, since this goblin will never balk at running into a lure, a trap, or a sacrifice payoff that needs an attacker to feed it. The forced-aggression template predates the card and has surfaced on plenty of red one-drops since; here it sits in one of its plainest forms, a downside common whose downside is small precisely because aggressive red wanted the body in the red zone anyway.
