Warden of the Crowd
Crowd-Control Warden is a pragmatic addition for midrange and token decks that want a scalable threat. Crowd-Control Warden enters as a 4/4 for {3}{G}{W} when cast normally, and its enter the battlefield trigger places one plus one plus one counter for each other creature you control. That interaction rewards wide boards and makes the warden a natural finisher after you flood the table with creatures or create a clutch token army.
The disguise line gives you a discreet early play and a reliable late reveal. Cast it face down as a 2/2 with ward 2 to bait removal then flip it for its disguise cost to turn board presence into a sizable creature. The foil near mint printing shown here pairs well with oriented creature strategies in Murders at Karlov Manor and slots into decks that value incremental, board based advantage.
