9CMC AND having to tap AND then spend mana is just too expensive. 9 CMC is even more than reiver demon, which is far more devastating than this. 9 CMC for a flying 6/6 that you have to tap and invest lots of mana in is just not good enough imo. If it didn't have to tap...

I would love it if it was 6/7 CMC

A typical type 1 cost card. The p/t and abilites just arent worth the mana cost of 9. Now, if it was played CORRECTLY, in a GOOD dragon deck, with LOTS of support, it could work. The deck would have to be solid red however, so a Chill would devistate it. Although it would be nice for getting rid of cretures quickly if you have the mana. I personnaly would chose to wait untill turn 10 and play two Lava Axes with a Fire Servant in play. Hitting for 20 is always preferable to doing 9 dammage to a creature.

If you see this card for the first time with this art, you will *never* love it.

Never been sure on this one. Quite good, but with a huge drawback in its mana cost.

Definitely one of the more scary looking dragons...

The original unused art for Crimson Hellkite in Mirage expansion was Dragon Mask. The story was that an artist friend of a developer attempted to draw an imposing dragon for Crimson Hellkite but ended up took the de***ion too literally, so the art went to the Mask instead.
