this is a good reprint for commander. it's a balance utility creature that is worth playing, but not overpowered.

This is definetely worth at least 4 and ½ stars.
Awesome new art is awesome.
Hope it gets reprinted soon (maybe M13?)
Classic.

This guy would be elegant and playable even if you made it a 3/2 that did 3 damage for .
It can swing the battlefield in a ridiculous way. Doing one more damage than a lightning bolt is surprisingly often important. I've even killed my own Homura to good effect.

Flameslash stapled to a powerful efficient {3} body. Not only is this almost always card advantage, it's opening the way for you to attack them. Really good in multi-color because it's color weight is low, really good in general because it's a powerful burn spell that you get to use as a creature, or vice versa.
Consider repercussion to make it more brutal (as the other effect of repercussion makes them not want to attack into him and not want to block him; making him an 8 damage burn spell.)

Hmmm...damn. I give this new art 5/5. I give the old art 5/5 too. Commander lets me play only 1. Damnit.

New art ahoy! Kinda liked the art of the old one (definitely looked like a Weatherlight story arc card, if that makes any sense), but this one is pretty darn good too. Not sure how many EDH decks he goes into, but lots of people will be glad to see this reprinted.

I'm looking forward to using the old art as a token for the new art when I copy him in my new RuG commander deck.
