Rationale
2cmc legendary 2/2 Spirit Soldier. ETB-trigger: whenever another nontoken creature enters, bolster 1 (grant a +1/+1 counter to your lowest-toughness creature). Signature in creature-dense midrange shells and counters-voltron (builds the designated voltron creature via +1/+1 distribution). Requires nontoken creature density to generate value; etb-only means the trigger window closes once opponents interrupt the creature pipeline.
