1. Have Ogre Battledriver on the field
2. Play Chandra's Phoenix, attack with the 4/2 flyer
3. Fling the Phoenix for 4 more damage
4. The Phoenix is sacrificed as a part of the cost, so it's in the graveyard before Fling resolves. It returns to your hand.
It's nice to have many Phoenixes, as they all return to your hand when you damage the opponent with one spell or planeswalker. I hope to soon play a Shock with an Elite Arcanist and return several Phoenixes and create several Elementals.

Perhaps even more relevant now than when this card was first printed, since Chandra is actually playable now. Chandra, Pyromaster, I love you.

It's back! <3
Do we even have to say why it's good or how to use it? It tells you right on the card.

Best in the cycle! Comes out quick and early, and can be recurred easily if you are playing in the right deck. It's no Magma Phoenix, but it is awesome in its own right.

Welcome back, old friend. Let's go wreck Standard along with the other crazy red stuff Return to Ravnica block gave us.

This card is a constructed dream but also seems quite nice in one of your first packs in limited since Wild Guess is a common.

Suddenly the Izzet Charm is lovable.
Draw a card discard the Phoenix, burn them and the Phoenix pops right back into your hand.

Chandra's deck in Duels 2014 is one of my favourite decks. This majestic bird is the primary reason.
... Magma Phoenix is the secondary.
