Hare Apparent

The line "A deck can have any number of cards named Hare Apparent" is the entire card, and it descends from Relentless Rats: a creature whose stats are almost beside the point and whose payoff scales with how many copies already share its name. Where Relentless Rats pumps raw numbers and Shadowborn Apostle converts bodies into fetch triggers, this one reads its own count off the battlefield and pays out in tokens, so each fresh copy resolving into a wider field of rabbits makes a bigger swarm than the last. That turns a 2/2 into a compounding board-flood engine, but only once the deck commits to jamming nine, twelve, twenty of the same card. The first one makes nothing, and the trigger counts only other Hare Apparents, which places the reward on copies played into a developed board rather than on the opening drop. That is the balancing act: a hand of these is a slow start that snowballs, not a fast one that stalls. Anything that reanimates, blinks, or copies the creature multiplies the whole engine, since every new entry recounts the growing population; a single wrath undoes the accumulation just as quickly. It is a deckbuilding dare printed as a plain white two-drop: build the entire deck around the joke, and the joke becomes a wall of rabbits.
