Éomer, King of Rohan

Legendary Creature — Human Noble3 generic manaRed manaWhite mana

A printed 2/2 whose real size is decided before it ever attacks: the counter-per-Human replacement effect means the body that lands scales with the tribe you have already committed, and double strike doubles whatever that scaling produces on the swing. The interesting part is what the single enter-the-battlefield trigger does with all that stored power. It hands the monarchy to a target player and then fires damage equal to Éomer's power at any target. The monarch clause reads as pure upside pointed at yourself, but naming a target player turns it into a lever at a multiplayer table: gift the crown to bait a stalled opponent into swinging, or keep it and dare the room to pry it loose. The damage clause converts the counter count directly into a burn spell on arrival, aimed anywhere, sized by however wide the Humans already were. That front-loads the entire payoff into the moment it resolves: the tribe you built determines both the body you keep and the shot you fire immediately, with no waiting on a combat step to cash in. It is a red-white Human build-around whose ceiling is set by the board that greets it, which makes an empty table its worst case and a full one its whole reason to exist.
