Easily worst of the elder dragons. Rampage and flying are sort of mutually exclusive, flying prevents blocking while rampage wants to encourage it.

The non-Bolas elder dragons were left behind in Legends-world for a reason, I'm afraid.

I don't think that this is that bad of a card, I prefer this over Arcades Sabboth...Rampage is still moderately useful in the late game, while Sabboth's ability isn't...

I don't think you understand how Rampage works...
This guy is so bad -- beyond the whole mana cost and upkeep, having evasion and an ability that triggers on multiple blockers is an incredibly stupid combination.

He's the coolest looking Elder Dragon, he's in my EDH Deck working for General Zur.
Chromium is the "Air Commander" (because that's what I've wrote on the card)
Flying, Rampage: 2
Pay BUW during
your upkeep or
Chromium is buried.

I don't know; personally I think Flying and Rampage makes some deal of sense; It's already more difficult to block something with flying, so this just makes it more difficult to have the right combination to block and kill him. Doesn't work as well with things like Lure of course, but I'm fine with it making something designed to be harder to block a bit harder. I know I used to hate that back in the day, combined with him being immune to Terror from my black deck back then.
Still, he's not that good. Now if he had trample, then we'd be talking...

Is this card the only card that shares a name with an element from the periodic table?

Flying and Rampage don't go together? I get swarmed by too many monowhite angel decks in my area to agree with you.

Yes, but without flying it would be fine vs flying blockers anyway, AND it'd be more likely to trigger.

Esper was almost impossible to play when this was printed. He requires a heavy upkeep, his two abilities work against each other. Bad card, never did nothin' for me.

Back in the day, for a brief time, these cards were more valuable than Black Lotus.
