5/5 for that wonderful flavour text. <3 I love Goblin flavour texts.

I'm not sure how favourably the card compares to other 4-mana sorceries these days, but this deserves big time respect for being the first of its kind. Attacking with creatures is fun... attacking twice in a turn, accordingly, is twice as fun!

LOL the flavor text is a nursery rhyme and a war cry...does that mean they have an army of kids?

The game's first mention of Squee! Also, this card was a big deal when it was printed. Heck, it's still good - four mana really isn't too much to ask to send in those Mogg Flunkies and Lightning Dragon again.

I give it 4 for the art. I'm more familiar with Geoff Darrow's comic book work (Hard Boiled, Shaolin Cowboy, Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot) and conceptual art (he did concept art for The Matrix, FYI). And hey, it's under a buck now. This was a very expensive card way back in the day.

They're goblins. I think the art and flavor text make that clear.

A very powerful card back in the day, and still respectable by today's standards. Also, one of the cards that helped get red give red some creativity while sticking with its theme of destroying stuff. This card was sort of a "proto-Overrun" - an expensive sorcery that could end the game with enough creatures in play.

Another card that was SUPER-hyped when it first came out. This was the chase card from Visions. It turned out not to be that strong either.
I still remember the excitement and wonder this card inspired the first time I saw it. The possibilities of completely screwing up combat math were the very definition of red combat mechanics to me, and as the first of many such effects, it deserves mention as a great card that you can build decks around. It pairs well with Radha, Heir to Keld, Inferno Titan and its ilk, and countless other cards.
