@ syntheticdreamer: obvious comment is obvious. This is a fair version of berserk and makes much more sense in red.

I'd rather have Berserk, but this is still a useful combat trick at times.
@lorendorky Well, someone had to do it, like how people say virtually every creature dies to removal. ;)

Am I the only one who can see this working well with Malignus ?

this one card won me 2 games in a row at the pre-release. No blockers, you say? then ill tap three and do twice the damage, gg.
The dude was pretty surprised, to say the least.

won me a game in prerelease turn 5: he at 16 life, i at 20, me demonic taskmaster in game and wandering wolf enchanted with dualcasting, in response to taskmasters upkeep trigger play this, activate dual casting and look at my opponents face while he realizes that i just won the match with my 16/3 demon..
Hey look a new toy for Kessig Wolf Run! You only need to do Kessig for 4, then play this, then you have a 20/6 trampling Primeval Titan for 9 mana

Underrated! Slap it on a pumped-up Invisible Stalker for one heck of a surprise!

underrated. if used correctly, it can do some shock and awe.
last time i used my red burn deck, after a couple turns and a few cheap goblins, Infernal Plunge's and a Shock got my Furyborn Hellkite out at 12/12. next turn i used Rush of Blood and wiped him out with a 24/12 flying death machine. amaaaaaaazing.

2.7 starts? Deserves at least four in my own personal stance. Mana cost is decent but it's an instant which "doubles power." I could see this working really well in a green deck due to all the power bombs they have. Break an opening in the defense, attack for 7 damage, then pump it up into a murder machine. Actually, this card would be glorious with that exalted deck I want to make. Bring out some low cost weenies, attack, double their power the moment an attack gets through. Would probably work even better if paired with "Odric, Master Tactician." Don't block, get maimed. Block, and your creatures get pulverized into juice.

Awesome combo with Malignus and Essence Harvest. Malignus got half the life of the opponent targeted. Rush of blood double his power (so he got 100% the amount of life of your opponent), and then Essence harvest deals 100% the amount of life of your opponent (no need to wait there is no more blockers).

Huh, I'm surprised nobodies mentioned Charmbreaker Devils yet, I mean with this card alone your Charmbreaker would become a 16/4 but if you cast even one more spell it would become a 24/4.
...Artful Dodge maybe.
But yeah I definitely like this card, it works even better on Malignus. In short it helps end games. It's seriously underrated, just wait until Gatecrash comes out.

If the creature you're going to use this on already has trample, it's better than Fatal Frenzy. If it has evasion that makes it likely that it's not going to be blocked, Rush of Blood might be better as well. Else I'd probably rather play Fatal Frenzy (or Berserk) and sacrifice the creature at end of turn.
