Lawbringer
Color-hosed hate creatures were a defining design language of the era this came from, and this is the white-aligned anti-red entry in that mold: a body that does nothing on offense but carries a sacrifice button that exiles a red creature outright, no targeting restriction beyond color. The exile is the part worth noting. Where most removal of the period buried a threat in the graveyard (live to a recursion spell, a reanimation effect, a regeneration shield), this one removes the creature from the game entirely, which mattered enormously against red decks built to grind back the same threats. The cost structure is what keeps it honest: tapping and sacrificing makes the answer a one-shot, and the activation costs you the body, so you cannot trade it away as removal and still have a blocker the next turn. The ability carries no timing restriction, though, which is the detail that makes the 2/2 earn its keep on defense. Declare it as a blocker, then tap and sacrifice it in response to a combat trick to exile the attacker before damage, and you trade your one card for their creature plus the spell they committed: a two-for-one paid for with a body that was never going to attack anyway. The Kor Rebel typing tied it to the white rebel mechanics of its home block, where tutoring small creatures into play on demand turned narrow hosers like this into a toolbox the right deck could assemble at will, the closest thing to a justification for a body this passive in any open matchup.
