Vengeful Firebrand

Creature — Elemental Warrior3 generic manaRed mana

The 5/2 body tells you exactly what this was built to do: hit hard, hit early, and trade itself in a race rather than survive one. The haste clause is conditional on a Warrior in your graveyard, which is the small piece of deckbuilding glue tying it to a tribal aggro shell; in a deck full of cheap Warriors that have already attacked and died, the condition is met by turn four as a matter of course, and the firebrand swings the moment it lands. The firebreathing then converts leftover red mana into reach, pushing a body that already outpunches its toughness toward lethal in a single combat step. The two-toughness ceiling is what pays for that aggression: it dies to nearly anything, blocks nothing useful, and asks you to commit it to the attack while the clock is yours. This is a closer for a curve-out, not a midrange threat, and the graveyard-keyed haste rewards a deck that has already spent its tempo upfront rather than one looking to grind. Reasonable as a finisher in a focused Warrior aggro build, unremarkable outside that context.
