Giant Solifuge
Shroud on a beater is the rare keyword that cuts both ways, and this body weaponizes the downside out of existence. A 4/1 dies to a stiff breeze, so the usual cost of shroud (you can't protect it either) barely registers: there is nothing to protect that a single point of damage wouldn't have ended anyway. What you get instead is a hasty trampler that no targeted removal spell can touch and no combat trick can pump, which turns it from a creature into a guaranteed clock. Block it with one creature and you eat trample; block it with nothing and you take four; reach for a targeted answer and you find there is no handle to grab. The hybrid cost is the other half of the design, letting it slot into any red-or-green aggressive shell without asking for a specific color of mana. The pairing of glass-cannon stats and shroud is a quietly elegant bit of design, because a creature too fragile to be worth saving turns its own unprotectability into pure evasion rather than a liability. The trade you make is the trade aggression always makes, raw damage now against any resilience to sweepers or sacrifice effects later, and Giant Solifuge commits to the front of that bargain without flinching.
