Legendary Creature — Spider Human Hero · {4}{B} · Black commander
Menace
Whenever a creature you control attacks alone, put a +1/+1 counter on it. Then surveil X, where X is the number of counters on it. (Look at the top X cards of your library, then put any number of them into your graveyard and the rest on top of your library in any order.)

What Spider-Man Noir actually does
Read off the card by the same engine the Forge and Analyzer use — this is the mechanical classification, not a summary.

What a Spider-Man Noir deck wants
The plan the Forge derives for this commander: the roles it fills and how many of each.
- 16× A creature that HAS the keyword the commander's trigger counts — a card that merely says the word is not one
- 11× Make creature tokens — a static anthem or a go-wide commander needs a board to be wide
- 14× Put +1/+1 counters on creatures you control, or multiply the ones already there
- 5× Actually remove one problem permanent — preventing its damage is not removing it
- 1× Answer a whole board at once
- 9× Find the exact card the plan needs
- 7× Refill your hand
- 2× Keep a permanent you control alive through removal
- 11× Get ahead on mana
