Goblin Surveyor — Scout the Chaos
Goblin Surveyor is a compact, efficient red creature that pulls its weight in aggressive builds. The card name speaks to its role on the battlefield: a 3/2 Goblin Scout with trample that pressures blockers and closes damage. The art shows a wide eyed scout peering through a crude periscope mounted on a barrel which reinforces the set tone of cobbled engines and fast plays.
In practice Goblin Surveyor is both an early beater and a fuel option. It works well in decks that care about recurring threats or filling the graveyard since its graveyard ability lets you exile it to draw a card once you have pushed its max speed. Use it to pressure life totals while you assemble your engines and keep card flow steady. Add it to red aggro, token builds, or any pile that values low cost attackers and graveyard utility.
