Goblin Surprise — Fast Chaos
Goblin Surprise is an efficient red instant from Foundations that gives you a flexible tempo punch. Cast it for {2}{R} to either buff your board or flood the battlefield with blockers and attackers. The art shows two mischievous goblins bursting through a splintered door which reinforces the card's split utility. Use the +2 attack boost when you need to close out damage and choose the token route when you need bodies to chump, crew, or trade in combat.
The choice mechanism makes Goblin Surprise a reliable inclusion in aggressive builds and token synergies alike. It reads cleanly on the stack and plays nicely with anthem effects, sacrifice outlets, or effects that care about creature entries. Practical, versatile, and true to goblin play patterns, this uncommon instant can pivot a turn in your favor. Pick one and get the surprise in play.
