Goblin Taskmaster

Goblin tribal lives or dies on the math of wide boards, and the pump here scales them sideways rather than statically. Where a flat anthem hands every Goblin a permanent point of power, this repeatable ability can push one attacker several sizes in a single turn: spend enough mana and a lone 1/1 becomes a closer, or a board of tokens turns every blocking decision into a guessing game. That repeatable, mana-hungry pump is what earns a one-power body its slot, because it converts surplus mana directly into combat pressure. The ability targets any Goblin, so it can swing a chump into a profitable trade, punch through a clogged ground, or simply dump excess mana when the hand runs dry. Morph reframes how the body deploys against unfavorable curves: rather than commit a 1/1 into open removal early, you can pay three to land it face down as an anonymous 2/2, then flip it for mid-combat to spring a pumper the opponent never saw coming. The face-down line trades the one-mana tempo for information and a beefier blank, which matters when an early 1/1 would just die to anything. It is a deliberately humble cog in the Goblin engine, doing nothing impressive in isolation and everything once the swarm is already on the table, which is precisely the role tribal aggro asks of its support creatures.
