Rationale

3cmc 3/2 legendary with first strike, trample, and lifelink. Stagger doubles all damage dealt to opp or their permanents until next turn when it connects. Premier aggressive threat in tempo/aggro and fits equipment-voltron shells (evasive base that grows with equipment, damage doubler amplifies pump). Removal-magnet as a must-answer threat.
