@elviticus; fact is, they don't have to gain life. They can choose not to, to not let you get punishing fire back.
Still, if you need to hold onto punishing fire to shut this guy down, is that not great?

edit--
My bad Pyroclasm & Chain Reaction both do damage... *facepalm*
Yeah, it sucks for monored. They'll just have to try to outnumber the white player. Somehow.

This card is really good. I run it in my red-white control deck with for example Powerstone Minefield and it gains me nice amount of life usually.

Ps. Razor Boomerang will finish this off... you just need 2 creatures (untapped), two turns and 5 mana; or 2 creatures (untpd) and 10 mana.

This is so unfair against red. I was running a red white and I ended up losing to this card. If only I had a couple of arid mesa's and more fetch lands I could've played day of judgement or a kor firewalker of my own.

For mono-red mages looking for a way to kill this guy (or any pro-red, for that matter), any sweeper spell that does damage to EACH creature (Pyroclasm, Volcanic Fallout, Chain Reaction, etc.) combined with any effect that makes damage unpreventable (Unstable Footing works best) will get through his protection. Not the most efficient answer ever, but at least he isn't invincible.

I dont know if this is better than what Burrenton Forge-Tender was in standard, but it still fills that voided slot in side boards. Too bad his second ability defensively sucks compared to the Kithkins :-\

(I did notice it was a life gain whenever any player plays a red spell though)
