rorix is as good-he's a 6/5 and i'm sure the hellkite's ability makes up for power only some of the time
point is that they're both good but in different ways

Its an interesting winning combo with a card like Living Plane or Nature's revolt although it might be hard to get all the cards to do it on the table.

So its possible to attack three times... if you pay fourteen mana.

This guy and Finest Hour are a combination that begs to be played.

Ack. Just needed the extra ability so it would compare to Rorix, huh? I guess a 6 mana 5/5 flying haste is simply not good enough.
Edit: This is a sarcastic commentary on the power creep. It shouldn't need to be comparable to the amazing clas sics in order to be rare - or be even better(looking at Baneslayer). I guess I was unclear.

Well consider playing this in a deck where creatures can give you 5RR and you can attack infinite times (provided the dragon stays alive). :)
Maybe Elvish Piper it to play, attack and pay 7 mana with other elves and untap everyone (after that maybe put some more dragons down with the untapped piper!) :D

This is such a huge timmy card. Hardly ever in tournament play , even in a deck that had mana acceleration enough for this to go off turn 5 did i get to stay alive or keep this card long enough to activate it's ability. You're better off throwing in some better resistance, like say A siege gang commander if you're running red, than to waste your time with this guy. He's just not a very smart choice in competetive play.
Magasul: helllkite charger only untaps attacking creatures. If you tapped your elves for mana they would all stay tapped.

Total limited bomb. Grab this and you can afford to go mono-red for sure.
