Impostor of the Sixth Pride

Changeling makes this a member of every tribe at once, which means the interesting math is not the body but the enabler count it hands a deck built around a single creature type. Where a tribal payoff usually asks you to run twenty-odd cards of one type before the synergies come online, a two-mana Shapeshifter that reads as Goblin, Elf, Merfolk, Wizard, and everything else simultaneously lets that count get there without diluting the plan: it gets pumped by whatever lord you drew, it satisfies whatever type-matters trigger the deck runs, and it fills a curve slot no matter which subtheme you committed to. The 3/1 is the tax for that flexibility. It swings for three but dies to almost anything, so it is fodder in the strictest sense, a body whose job is to be counted rather than to survive combat. That fragility is what keeps a universal tribal member from being strictly better than the real thing: you get the type-line breadth of a card like Mistform Ultimus, but you pay for it up front in toughness instead of paying later in synergy loss. The design leans aggressive on purpose, a white two-drop that wants to attack before the one-toughness drawback catches up, which sets it apart from the more defensive changelings that lean on evasion or reach to justify their tribal utility.
