While this isn't a powerhouse, it is a versatile goblin, since it can raise the power of any of your creatures in a goblin deck. Unlike other creatures with firebreathing effects, this guy's useful if any goblins are left unblocked.

I always liked morph, but on a strongly tribal card like this you'll rarely if ever play him facedown.

Sorta like a firebreathing-helper. Only costlier. Still, quite nice if you've got some things charging for damage.

Oh, and that eye patch is badass.

Doesn't seem at first like a terrible 1-drop for Goblins, but Goblins have WAY better options in that department. First effect is crap... 2 for a +1/+0 is only useful if you have extra mana and trying to get some extra damage. Morph is okay, but he doesn't count as a Goblin as a face-down, so it doesn't help you there.

Problem with him is that Goblins have too many more viable options (Like Goblin Lackey, duh)

Strictly better than Bellows Lizard, amusingly enough.
