Should Be 1/1 and Have no coin flip and automatically deal 2 damage to its target

pretty much the worst card ever. Four mana for a 2/2 that has a fifty percent chance of killing itself upon activation.

Bloodthrist 1 or 2 would have make this card playable, and even good.

Hmm, if only there were some card in this set that gave gave other goblins +1/+1..., this could be playable. I like this card. Very flavorful, very dangerous, very goblin. You also have to put some thought into how best to use it. Would work well with Accorder's Shield, allowing it to attack and then tap to zap a blocker. Because of its cost, it won't see competitive play like Grim Lavamancer, but it's possibly more fun. I don't think they typically print coin-flipping cards to be competitive anyway, but fun. Even if they're on the field naked as a 2/2, it will be a good time when your opponent risks it and drops that 2-tough creature.

It's crazy how this set has three different Tims: one common (Goblin fireslinger), one uncommon (goblin bangchuckers), and one rare (grim lavamancer). All of them are way different than the usual Tim.

Tailor made for Krark's Thumb and Spirit Mantle.

@ChaosK:
If they removed the tap cost, then this card would win you the game with a Withstand Death

For a coinflip I would want more for my money.
Maybe make them a 2/3 and deal 3 to itself. It'd live combat and be a flavorful mirror to Arbalest Elite.
Maybe if it rolled a D6 and sacced itself on a 6, dealt damage otherwise.

Should have been a 1/1 for 2 with the same ability.
