While the card is barely playable, the flavor text is brilliant.

I would play this card only because of his flavour text.

if this were to cost 3 mana instead, it'd be used in every single red deck created. and yet, at 6 mana it's way too overcosted. i'm thinking 4 mana would be a fine price (if not 5, though that may be pushing it).

So... It's like a weaker Flametongue Kavu, that costs more, but damages players instead of creatures?

if you notice lava axe deals 1 dmg for each mana you pay and this one costs 4 for each dmg + 1 more for each power/toughness too balanced xD
irelark leaves play so im going to put three of them in play so thats 12 damage

One of my first Magic cards. (Not that anybody would care :P) Pretty overcosted. Which is probably why my friend gave me this card in the first place :D
I always found the artwork to be pretty cool though. And liked how it's the reason Kamahl is bald. (My first Vorthos experience about background lore) Probably that's also why he has just 1 tougness left. His flavor text even supports this thought: "I didn't come to play. I came to win." He didn't come into play - his pet did. And burned him for 4. Then he was like: "Screw taming these curs! When i grow up, i shall become a great fighter like Balthor instead." (He would later realize he'd like to be an animal tamer afterall and become a druid.)

One of the problems with this card is stapling a bear to a lava axe doesn't make it any better. A 2/2 body is almost guaranteed to irrelevant by the time you cast this guy.

That is some serious creature re-typing you did there, WotC.
Also, as Huffytreefolkman mentioned, Reveillark. That could turn into a lot of damage.

Gets some damage in even if it never attacks. Also my favorite tribe. 3/5 :)
