It's a free 5/5 dragon. Very useful early on.

Needs a different name, but it's good early or late.

I find this one of the most boring archenemy cards. it's great for balancing the game but it's just.. boring. not flavorful and doesn't do something crazy. just, bam, free dragon. even the green saprolings are a little more interesting.

See, now this is a reliable scheme. It does the same thing every time. Free dragon. Boom. Very middle-of-the-road in terms of power level. What you see is what you get, that sort of thing.

I hate the Archenemy pulling this on turn 1. You have to either blow spot removal (causing card disadvantage seeing as they got the dragon for free), or your team gets quite a wallop to the face over the course of a few turns.

Really makes poor-ol' The Iron Guardian Stirs look pretty pathetic, doesn't it? But given how many times that card's saved my sorry butt from aggro decks, I guess I can't say this isn't pretty useful.

Probably worth considering this, given that a fair amount of the best schemes work better late, so having something that works better early might help.

this turn one is so funny....almost every time i get this or roots of all evil and cause people to scoop by turn three with saproling and in this case dragon madness.

Death By Dragons is better. Yes, for the Archenemy. Always target yourself.

If you still can't figure it out, go ask Sarkhan the Mad who the Tyrant of Jund is.
