Goblin Rally
Four bodies for five mana is below the rate for a token spell asking nothing in return, which is exactly the trade being offered: this is a sacrifice-fodder generator wearing the costume of board presence. The tokens matter less as attackers than as fuel, four triggers for an aristocrats engine, four creatures to feed a Goblin Bombardment or a convoke cost, four discrete units to chump or sacrifice on demand. The Goblin type line is the second axis. A quartet of 1/1s is unexciting alone, but a stack of Goblin lords or a payoff that scales with creature count turns the spell into a reload button rather than a one-time dump. The sorcery speed is the tax on getting four bodies in a single motion: you commit the whole package on your own turn, into open mana, with no instant-speed window to ambush a combat or rebuild after a sweeper resolves. Hand them over one at a time and you keep the flexibility; hand them over all at once and you accept the timing restriction. The card supplies breadth and leaves the payoff to whatever it shares a deck with, living or dying on the company it keeps.
