Okk
The 4/4 frame promises a beater that should anchor a red curve; the next two lines spend that promise back. This goblin won't charge unless something with greater power charges alongside it, and won't dig in to block unless a creature with greater power blocks too: a premium body leashed to a chaperone bigger than itself. The flavor is the mechanic and the mechanic is the joke, a brawny goblin too dim to act unless the meaner creature moves first. What makes the restriction so deflating is that it is nearly impossible to satisfy on purpose. Unlocking an attack demands a creature with power above four, and any deck already fielding that body has no reason to babysit a goblin that cannot act on its own. So the stats advertise a threat the text quietly disqualifies, an act of intentional comedy from an era that printed cards as gags first and tournament objects almost never. Okk belongs to a small tradition of beaters sabotaged by their own riders, where the frame is bait and the restriction is the punchline: cousins to the kind of design that prices a too-good rate against a condition you will rarely meet. It is less a card you build around than one you read twice, grin at, and slide back into the binder.
