I'm definitely putting this in my Lord of Riots deck. It can get Rakdos out most games on turn 4 or 5, and then theres not much stopping me from getting some nice flying/trample damage in every turn. This dude will swell like a balloon. The only issue I can see is that unless i spend some money on some Rakdos shocklands I'm not gonna be able to get this guy out turn 3 and then Rakdos turn 4. Still, well worth it for a creature that can easily become a 7/7 after just one swing with Rakdos.

This card is beast in my Purphoros, God of the Forge EDH deck.
Turn 5 (last turn casted my general)
1. Enters the battlefield with 2 +1/+1 counters on it for each opponent
2. Cast Dragon Fodder, put 4 +1/+1 counters on it for each opponent
3. Purphoros, God of the Forge becomes a creature
4. Hit an opponent with no blockers with Purphoros, God of the Forge, put 6 +1/+1 counters on it.
In a four man game of EDH, it's already a 25/25, suck it Primordial Hydra! Shame it'd normally get doom blade'd next turn.

Very cool in a mono-red burn. Pingers, Bolts, all kinds of wonderful methods to deal damage and make this guy bigger. Fun card to play in casual.

Repercussion works in both directions. Effectively gives him trample while allowing you easy access to his "don't sac" clause. Both also work well with Blazing Salvo as it's pretty lose/lose.

Mogis loves this fella. Gets big and gives great devotion. Plenty of ways for red and black to get that incidental damage needed to make this guy great. 4/5
