Goblin Heelcutterutility$0.10Fits the same aggressive red creature slot and rewards attacking before casting it. Instead of direct damage, it makes a blocker unable to block, but it plays similarly as a raid-style tempo threat.Flamewrightutility$0.16A cheap red creature that supports attacking and provides extra board presence. It is less direct damage and more token utility, but fills a similar low-impact creature role in red decks.Borderland Marauderutility$0.09A simple aggressive red attacker that rewards being in combat early. It lacks an enters-the-battlefield trigger, but serves the same low-curve pressure role.Ahn-Crop Crasherutility$0.07A raid-like aggressive creature that wants you to attack first. It disrupts blockers and keeps pressure on the opponent, similar to Mardu Heart-Piercer’s tempo-oriented role.Boltwing Marauderfinisher$0.25A red flying finisher that rewards creature-heavy aggression and delivers a direct combat payoff. It is much larger in scope, but similar as an attack-driven damage threat.Keldon Maraudersutility$0.12A red creature that creates value through damage when it enters and leaves the battlefield. It is a comparable red tempo burn creature, though its damage pattern is more delayed.Spikeshot Elderremoval$0.25A red creature that turns extra mana into direct damage, giving a similar removal-plus-creature function. It is more repeatable, but still serves as a small red damage source on a body.Viashino Pyromancerremoval$0.12A 2-power red creature that immediately deals damage on entry. It is the closest budget-style analogue to a small red creature that also burns something on ETB.
