This card is quite possibly the most satisfying devour. The look in your opponents eye when the realize they cant counter or even prevent 20+ flying damage. :D its beautiful

Fun ability. Occasionally constructed-worthy. Haste and flying is such a potent combination here, all the eggs in one basket, trading each 1/1 ground-pounder's life for 2 points of flying damage. Great finisher at 6mana.

a simply amazing card for any Jund deck, but i have found even more use in its burn deck potential, its a 4/4 devour 2 flying "i win the game" type of card. defiantly worth a play set!

Probably my favorite dragon-- my friends have come to fear the tipping point in games when I play the deck with the dragons: if they can't kill me before I get the 3 red I need to cast my dragon, they're in trouble. Amazing game-ender, fun to play, combos well with several cards in the set.

Great game finisher. After devouring 8 creatures, i played wildsize. 22/22 flying, trample, haste, completley destroyed a deck. This card gets 5 stars from me.

I personally dont think that this card is as good as Flameblast Dragon, but i suppose it depends upon the deck your playing, I use a Red Blue Contol style deck running 3 Flameblast and 1 Predator Dragon, and unless i got loads of token's out i'll always prefer a Flameblast (dunno if that's just me because Flameblast = Control + Finisher lol)

what happens when it gets unsummoned? this card is all about timing because any kind of CC after you cast him and you screwed. especially if you eat half your creatures.

Easily the most powerful devour critter. devour 2 makes it significantly less likely to be card disadvantage, and haste & flying make it a beat stick.

Very awesome to play when they tapped out to play their djiin of wishes, or something else big :) Catches em off guard, and kicks them in the groin for it hard. Bext devour there is atm.

the devour is doble edged.
player A plays his dragon and sacrifices 4 creatures to give it +8/+8 he is left just with the dragon but is certain that a 12/12 flyer with haste will win him the game since the other player has 10 life and non of his creatures have flying, he prepares to attack with a smile on his face
Player B: DOOM BLADE
Player A is left with 0 creatures giving player B creature advantage
Player A: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.

This card is the finisher in my goblin deck. Devour small creatures for a gigantic flying one, my friends can never stop it.
I'd pretty much say this outdoes Voracious Dragon. This guy can eat up all those saprolings you're Mycoloth has been pooping out for turns, but Voracious HAS to eat goblins to burn up you're opponent. Voracious may be better in pure gobo token generation burn, however, between Dragon Fodder, Empty the Warrens, and what-have-you...
I'd still prefer this. Voracious is only better if you make a deck built to make him better.

I put this guy in an Eldrazi Spawn deck with Hissing Iguanar. Lots of little victims that all turn into direct damage and then pump my dragon at two power per.

This is a great dragon, no doubt... but I'd still have to give the award for best dragon ever to Kokusho, the Evening Star with an honorable mention to Broodmate Dragon . As far as beater dragons, my personal favorite has always been Kilnmouth Dragon, since they printed it

This makes me hate Doom Blade, Terminate, Maelstrom Pulse, Plummet, and friends with a burning passion. Then again, who else will protect us from a big nasty dragon? It's a really flavorful mechanic and I like devour, but it just screams card disadvantage.

Very,very good. Can be 1hit KO in any goblin deck,as it has haste&devour.Can easiliy be boosted to about 10/10 with secrefising just 3 creatures and u get extra strong dragon. really amaizing card,i want 4 as soon as possibile.
I run this in my elf deck and it just owns face! he just flies in eats a ton of elves and then proceeds to annihilate your opponent.

I'm thinking this is one of only a few viable Devourers. Some have their niches, like Mycoloth and Voracious Dragon. But this one and maybe Skullmulcher are the only ones able to negate the card disadvantage Devour causes. (This because, short of an instant, it should end the game for you.)
that haste is really quite good. haste is good on big creatures. not so much on smaller ones.

@CptStormCrow Awesome name, but whenever two or more of a legendary creature with the same name are on the battlefield at the same time, they die as a state-based action. Your idea doesn't work.

Sacrifice a 1/1 and get a 6/6 flyer with HASTE. ...and that's just sacrificing 1 creature. Best Dragon yet.

@RafiqTheMiststalker Voracious Dragon is much better for a goblin deck. is allot easier then with goblins, and x2 Goblin War Strike is more then enough to finish. And you still deal the damage even if they Doom Blade your dragon.

This is my goblin deck's finisher. A lot of people may look at it and think 'dies to removal' but haste makes this thing a BEAST. The entire game they've been fighting my hasty goblins, but are almost always unprepared for the sudden dragon. When I play him, its only because I want him to win the game for me, and every time I have, it was game.
Even if you had no creatures before it, it'd be a 7/5 flying, lifelink, haste

Then this guy FTW
