Scorned Villager // Moonscarred Werewolf
A mana dork that gets bigger when nobody plays the game. On its human face it taps for a single green and does nothing fancy; the payoff lives entirely on the back. Transform it and the same tap line doubles its output while picking up vigilance, which is the rare ramp body that can both accelerate and attack without surrendering its blocker on the swing. The condition that governs the flip is the werewolf clock's particular cruelty: the front face wants a quiet turn, the back face wants a loud one, and both halves are decided by what everyone did, including you. That makes it a ramp piece whose efficiency you cannot fully control, only influence by sandbagging spells when you want the upgrade or chaining them when you want to hold the human side. The day-night werewolf framework was always a tension engine first and a creature type second, and here it is bolted onto the most fundamental green resource: mana. Most accelerants pay for their rate with fragility or a sorcery-speed restriction; this one pays by tying its best version to a metagame of casting cadence around the table, a cost that fluctuates turn to turn rather than sitting fixed on the card.
