I'm happy to see them bringing back coin-flipping in red. I'm not happy about it showing up on a card that's mediocre even if you only ever flip heads.

This is the best named card. The competition is over forever. We can all go home now.
Pairs sort of well with Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker, since a kiki-jiki-copied Bangchuck has nothing to lose.
Go look at the art for Kiki-Jiki and just try to tell me the dude wouldn't love to copy a Bangchuck. He's so... bangchuckesque.
P.S. When you have the opportunity to use "bangchuck" as a verb, playability comes second.
P.P.S. I didn't even make a Bangchuck Norris joke.

I have mixed feelings about this card. What I like is that it's potentially powerful, but it really is bad by itself. To make this card worthwhile, you need to invest at least another card to make it not kill itself every time you lose a flip. If you can do that, it's possible to take over the game with it (as long as your coin cooperates).

Probably costs 1 too much for what it does, IMHO.

I really like the concept of coin flipping but seriously they just have to make it playable. I dont get why this mechanic often ends up being junk.
Should have been way cheaper or more powerful or more reliable in my opinion. Another possibility would have been to make the ability cost 0 and cut the tapping - so much wasted potencial
Seriously i wouldnt consider such an ability on a 4cmc creature overpowered even WITHOUT the coin flip. But with such a huge drawback i would want something great to happen, if i win the coin flip.
Please R&D make a good coin flip card

This is a very goblin-y card. Unfortunately, it isn't a very good card. All I see when I look at it is overpriced ammunition for Goblin Grenade.
