"Design a 0-cost creature. Must cast for 0 mana, no extra mana, no abilities that cost mana, but can have other hoops."

I tried a few variants but the ideas I liked most were "ornithopter but for a different keyword" and "kobold lord" and kobold lord was the one I thought of.

I tried to make it genuinely useful in a deck filled with 0-cost creatures, but not so strong it was affinity all over again.

I note the "base power and toughness" language makes this kind of thing a lot easier, without having arguments about "creautres you control with power less than 4 get +2/+2" type abilities.

Was "when this attacks and isn't blocked, deals damage equal to the number of..."

I think the "each creature" version is more interesting.

Wish it could activate before blockers but this is already pushing it a lot for 0-cost.
