Merfolk Windrobber

An evasive one-drop that spends its own life to close the gap between chip damage and a card. The mill trigger looks like a decorative rider on a flying beatstick, but it is load-bearing: the sacrifice ability only turns on once an opponent has eight cards in their graveyard, and a 1/1 flyer connecting for one mill a turn is one of the ways that threshold fills. The design makes the body its own enabler, then cashes it in for a card the moment the counter reads eight. That gates the payoff behind a self-imposed clock rather than handing it over for free, and it means the flyer wants to attack early and often, not sit back. What makes the design tidy is that both halves point the same direction: the evasion feeds the mill, the mill feeds the sacrifice condition, and the flyer you cared about on turn one becomes a fresh card in hand later without any outside help. It rewards a tempo shell that is already sending small creatures into the red zone, where the graveyard fills as collateral and the Windrobber's late-game mode arrives on schedule.
