F*** the flavor text. He's still a king in Esper. Like to see a sphinx take on this soveriegn piece of work.

This ish a really good card to use... I owned many players using this card... Color Combination of Spellbound Dragon -> Discarding Kederekt Leviathan/Inkwell Leviathan -> Soul's Fire for the win!

Agent1103: Where's the combo with Magma Phoenix? Its ability doesn't trigger if it's discarded.

This is a solid beater and card-filterer for 5 mana. Add discard shenanigans on top of that, and you've got a fine top end to your curve.

Awesome, awesome card. Flavorfully, I think it should have been an artifact creature, but that may have been too broken.

@skew
In my opinion, i dont think any of the cards you named co exist as well with this card simply because it stays on the battlefield.

THE combo with this card is Magma Phoenix. Along with Darksteel Colossus, Spellbound Dragon has some massive damage potential. There are several other cards in current Standard with unearth that allows Spellbound Dragon to be used to maximum potential while maintaining the utility of the cards discarded. For example, Scourge Devil has a high casting cost, giving Spellbound Dragon +5P, but a lower unearth cost and a nice come into play ability, giving all creatures +1/+0 until end of turn. After all is said and done, b*tch slap your opponent with Soul's Fire for the coup de grâce.

Edit: Celfaria, I never said anything about Magma Phoenix's ability triggering, I was referring to the ability to bring it back from the grave. You discard it, and you don't have to lose card advantage.
