This card is actually quite OP if your using a deck with a lot of instants and sorceries that cost one...

Turn 1: Mountain
Turn 2: Mountain, tap both lands and play Kiln Fiend
Turn 3: Play 3 instants or sorceries and you have 10/1 ready for action.

Always think twice about sending this guy to fight for you.

@Atoonix:

You know what? Forget this.

T1: Land, Mox/Lotus Petal/Simian Spirit Guide/Elvish Spirit Guide (if your land taps for )/Rite of Flame (also if your land taps for ), Kiln Fiend
T2: Land, any number of things*, attack for variably unblockable, lethal damage.


*Probably involving at least one of the following:
Tainted Strike, Assault Strobe, Berserk, Double Cleave, Fatal Frenzy, Rush of Blood, Soul's Fire
And one of the following:
Apostle's Blessing, Emerge Unscathed, Faith's Shield, Stave Off, Artful Dodge, Distortion Strike, Shadow Rift, Aphotic Wisps, Ebony Charm, Ghostform, Veil of Secrecy, Falter, Nightbird's Clutches, Teleportal, Order // Chaos
And quite possibly at least one of the following:
Gitaxian Probe, Gut Shot, Rite of Flame, Mutagenic Growth, Invigorate, Thunderclap, Fireblast, Snap, Desperate Ritual, Pyretic Ritual, Manamorphose, Frantic Search, Seething Song


Happy now?

Best friends with Chandra's Spitfire. I run em in my 2hg deck with Forked Bolt, Reckless Charge, Assault Strobe and Teetering Peaks. Throw in some nice cheap removals and storm through the defenses.

Gut Shot anyone?

Think of how easy this would be:
Turn 1 - Mountain
Turn 2 - Mountain, Kiln Fiend
Turn 3 - Mountain, something along the lines of 2 Flame Slashes to get rid of any opposing creatures, then Assault Strobe, and swing with your 10/1 double strike turn 3.

When this guy hits the table, it's kiln time.

An absolute house in Red or U/R spell decks, and one of my favorites. oh, and it's COMMON 5/5

Eats people alive. I like to play him with other spells-matter cards, like Gelectrode and Guttersnipe. You end up with a deck that enjoys card advantage, controls the board, works in multiplayer, and can win by attacking, pinging, or hitting for indirect damage (very helpful in casual multiplayer when someone pulls out stormtide)

I have a ridiculous deck built around this card, Nivix Cyclops and Wee Dragonauts. I usually win around turn 4.

Here's the(slightly modified) decklist:

4x Kiln Fiend
4x Nivix Cyclops
4x Wee Dragonauts
4x Assault Strobe
4x Armed//Dangerous
4x Distortion Strike
4x Artful Dodge
4x Aqueous Form
4x Titan's Strength
4x Brute Force

8x Mountain
4x Izzet Guildgate
8x Island

Turn 1: Island
Turn 2: Mountain, Fog Bank
Turn 3: Island, Kiln Fiend
Turn 4: Mountain, Fog Bank, Spectral Flight (Kiln Fiend)
Turn 5: Mountain, Rush of Blood (Kiln Fiend), Attack, Fling (Kiln Fiend)

Hopefully your opponent hasn't gained more than 24 life. or played anything with Reach/Flying, or Prevent any damage or Canceled any Spells.
