Heedless One

Creature — Elf Avatar3 generic manaGreen mana

Most tribal lords hand a static bonus to the whole team; this one inverts the relationship, pouring the entire board's worth of Elves into a single body whose size lives or dies by the count. And it counts every Elf in play, friend or foe, which is the wrinkle that sets it apart from the typical "your creatures" template: in a mirror or a crowded pod, it swells off an opponent's commitment as readily as your own, and trample makes that swollen number a problem no single chump-blocker can solve. The bill comes due through fragility. Power and toughness both ride on a live count, so the moment the Elf population drops, it becomes a state-based liability: a sweeper, or even an opposing Elf trading away mid-combat, can collapse it from a finisher to a corpse in the same instant. That makes it the high-variance top end of a go-wide shell rather than a stabilizer, a card that rewards committing harder rather than holding back, because it wants a battlefield already flooded before it swings. The design is the lord-as-creature idea pushed to its limit: instead of granting a bonus, it concentrates one, and it pays for that concentration honestly. The dynamic that swells it into a threat is exactly what marks it for the first casualty when the board gets cleared.
