Why?

Meh, why not.

Pretty much Lorwyn block constructed tribal but the value and synergy on an extreme budget that's actually fun to play. Super aggressive with evasive creatures that can activate some neat combat abilities and etb effects. The Prickly Boggart and Stinkdrinker Bandit do the most work together getting in fairly unblockable damage that activates Prowl for good value on cards like Earwig Squad to disrupt your opponents combo pieces or just more Bandits. Facevaulter can prove to be a big hitter or flexible blocker by spreading out blockers and then sacrificing other creatures to block and destroy something bigger. Typically this should be more on the offense and it pairs well with Knucklebone Witch and Warteye Witch. Fodder Launch does triple duty by activating the Witches, likely killing an opponents creature (of decent size too) and five damage to the face is no joke. Frogtosser Bannaret makes Launch only 3 mana as well which is ridiculous and it can be fetched with Boggart Harbinger.

Simple Goblin tribal aggro but color shifted to black instead of red which just gives it some more interesting gameplay than a swarm of hastey 1/1 tokens or the same creatures everyone uses. The Rakdos goblins are also a way to go for access to the best of both colors, but this is still super fun and best of all, super cheap. No crazy expensive lands, no overplayed or overpriced spells or creatures, nothing unfair or "cheap". Wins feel good, losses don't feel bad because you wasted a ton of money on the latest netdeck. Lists like this remind me how well designed and fun to play Lorwyn block was. I'd love to see a revisit some day to give tribal decks (it supported at least eight tribes for crying out loud!) in mono or dual colors a revival. It's always been my favorite way to build and play.
