In my personal opinion I think b/r needs a better possible gold 2 mana drop, but i'll take it. 3.5/5.

Fists of the Demigod? Let's add that up; 5/3 Trample, first strike, wither for 4cmc and two cards. That's pretty good value for mana AND cards spent. On top of that those are all sympathetic abilities. 4.5/5

I like it, good mana cost, if only useable in Black/Red, and anything that gives it a bit more killing power(Fists of the Demigod were mentioned) makes it a killer creature. That right there is worthy of a 3.5/5, and I'll give it one more point for Raymond Swanland's art.

Sorry guys, Garruk's Companion wins this round, as does Hellspark Elemental.

Not as awesome or versatile as Jund Hackblade, but still pretty nice with Goblin Chieftain.

Not Bad At All Great In An Aggro Deck. First Strike Is The Only Pain. Plus The Art And Flavor Text Are Beast!

Great when used with equipment such as Magebane Armor, Accorder's Shield or enchantments like Fists of the Demigod.

Great 2 drop. 4/5

This card puts the "breast" in B/R.

Sorry. I had to.

Get a Bloodmark Mentor out the next turn, and this guy can start smashing. Even better, it works nicely for tribal, if that's what you're after.

Clearly, some dark magic has removed the weaknesses of Goblin Rock Sled.

On curve stats, trample makes it invaluable for pumps (especially global pumps), 3 power on a 2-drop is always great.

You can make a low curve R/B gobbo deck out of this guy, spike jester, tattermunge, jund hackblade, and maybe a couple of things like Wardriver, bushwacker, goblin lord, and goblin lookout

With all of those 3 power 2-drops and the opportunity for large pumps you could quickly end the game:
T1- Maniac
T2 - any of the 3power 2-drops, 2-5 damage
T3 - 2-drop, 1 drop - 5-8 damage
T4 - 10 + damage

T4 without anything fancy. Not bad for casual aggro goblins; using nothing but outcasts of goblin decks that will run very low budget :)
