Vigilant Baloth
A green common vanilla-plus body sized for the simplest question in green midrange: can one card hold the ground and still apply pressure? At five mana for a 5/5 with vigilance, the answer is yes on both counts. It blocks anything an aggressive deck can reasonably field, then swings back for five without ever opening the back door. Green has historically priced its beaters at a slight discount to the rate white or red would charge, and the vigilance keyword here is doing the work that lets one creature cover two jobs that usually need two cards. There is nothing modal, nothing situational, no death trigger to play around: a clean curve-topper for a slower deck that wants to keep tempo while it stabilizes. It descends from green's tradition of fatties built to make combat math miserable, and this one's specific contribution is the vigilance line that erases the usual tension between attacking and holding a wall. Unremarkable by intent, and that is precisely what it is for: a reliable body a plodding green deck can plan around.
