Rationale

3cmc legendary squirrel with forestwalk and a powerful token-doubling static ability: whenever tokens would be created, create those tokens plus an equal number of 1/1 green squirrel tokens. Also includes a sacrifice outlet ({B}, sacrifice X squirrels → target creature gets +X/-X). Signature in token-go-wide shells that generate tokens (treasures, food, clues, saprolings, etc.), where the doubling is explosive. Requires meaningful token density to shine; weak in token-light shells. Tier-2: strong commander and casual format staple, but not format-defining across all archetypes.
