Only individual card that inherently has flying, firebreathing and double strike. It might be a little too powerful, but I like it anyway.

A pretty flexible card. A good part of any dragon deck.

Never underestimate the power of firebreathing, evasion, and double strike on the same card. It can be, and very much is, a win condition. And don't kid yourself- if you're playing this right and including it among your Hellspark Elementals, Ball Lightnings, and Bolts, your hand will be empty very quickly. This guy WILL have double-strike. It's just a matter of getting in and using him quickly before your opponent has a chance to react.

I mean, a 3/3 for four is solid. A 3/3 for four with three useful abilties is an incredible deal, even if they're mana-intensive or conditional. I'm surprised this guy never warrented more attention- he's useful in anything red-heavy. He needn't be used in dragon tribal.

That said, Silverware, who plays dragon decks that aren't Dragonstorm?

This can hit for stupid amounts of damage.

Ignorant Bliss could really mess with your opponent during the combat phase with this mofo.
