2 per activation is a little costly for 1-2 damage, even if it's repeatable.

I see this + Archon of Justice... Sure it does nullify the chroma, but it enables the effect of archon.

but for more consistent plays, there's also murderous redcap... what? I don't know..

I don't often post here, but the flavor text on this is hilarious, and the best part of the card.

Otherwise, I can not expect to see this played without more than a few cards with heavy red in the cc. Do you really want to play a 1R enchantment, pay 2 mana, and sac your Ashenmoor Gouger or Balefire Liege?

A little too costly...

Could be cool in casual decks. I really like the flavor text.

When they are about to die, might as well toss it.

Hey, it's like a Knollspine Invocation for permanents. That's pretty neat. Although I don't see it having nearly the limited applications as the Invocation.

Basically, all of your red men become a Mogg Fanatic for 2 mana.

I can see this seeing play in Red Deck variants, particularly as it allows Gouger or Ram Gang to hit for 3 more damage.

Interesting card. Could see play as a finisher or a combo-piece. It's going to be very good in limited I know that much.

Fun with Heartmender and red persisters, I guess. Won't see serious play outside of Limited.

Not saying this will see constructed play, but remember it's pretty bombastic with Persist creatures. This + Redcap + 4 mana = 7 damage split anyway you want anytime you want. Also, seems like a fun way to turn Thunderblust into a ball lightning, while also letting it hit for 6 more to the face.

Great flavor btw!

I like it. As guilan stated, it goes well with Redcap, which is a plus.
