Bad block card is bad.

It's ok for limited I guess, though since it by itself does nothing (you need creatures that are worth to attack with and be able to kill your opponent or survive counter attacks), I wouldn't add too many to my limited decks.

There are no flames, sparks or lightning in the art.

How can this be a red card?

The actual ability is very red but the art and name seem very blue. I could see this as a blue card except it just taps them and it would be perfectly flavorful.
The ability is good and all but I still want them to just reprint Falter already, it's what we all compare these panic cards to anyways.

Can this target the same creature twice? Or would that require the targeting to be resolved separately?

But when the Nightbird took a barrel of John Jameson's whiskey, well, that was another matter...

Like it.

Since it is looked down upon, I always seem to draft this on FNM's.

It always makes for a grand scene when you're attacking with Krallenhorde Wantons or something of grand attack without Trample.

So I've been tooling around with this card for a while. There is one application it could be constructed viable in, Goblins. There's so many times you NEED to have the blockers up or be stuck on the very wrong side of 5 or 6 damage. For 2 mana this means you miss that very key block, taking that extra 2 or 3 damage. Flashback is extremely important as even if they manage to Flames of the Firebrand your guys, you can rebuild the board state and squeeze in just enough damage for the win.

I just ended up going 2 of in the deck since it's not a card you want to see over creatures, but it really has helped me end some games already. Don't look past it!

As many others have said, not a four-of, but definitely worth including in any deck running red.

3.5/5
