It's one of the best guys you can hope for, which is tough to say about a lot of seven drops. This guy is just that good.

It's a solid bomb, and my only complaints are that it costs 7 and dies to removal. On the other hand, the only C/U removal I can think of that gets it is arrest , avenging arrow , selesnya charm , and aerial predation . I'm not counting bounce.

Assassin's Strike
Launch Party
Explosive Impact

Selesnya Charm won't work without something else going on.

4.0: Excellent first pick first pack, will sway me into same colors: Advent of the Wurm

3.5: Excellent first pack pick two, will confirm colors or possibly sway into second color. Gaze of Granite

3.0: Good in-color addition, or splashable removal/creature: Ascended Lawmage

2.5: Solid pick in-color: Bronzebeak Moa

2.0: Creatures 10-16; removal 6-7. Haazda Snare Squad

1.5: My 23rd or 22nd card, depending on removal. Wake the Reflections

)
1.0: 23rd card if I don't maindeck an additional land: Murmuring Phantasm

0.5: This card will sometimes be sideboarded in: Uncovered Clues

0.0: I will shred this card for counters: Possibility Storm

catowner mentioned Selesnya Charm as Uncommon removal that gets it. I was saying that Selesnya Charm won't get it unless it gets a power boost from something.

For some reason I thought it had power 5. I don't know why but when I hover over linked cards half of them show up really tiny and sometimes I'm too lazy to click it to verify. My bad!

Haha, yea. I kept thinking it was a 5/6, but I gave it a second look when I thought of Explosive Impact and saw it was a 4/5 so I mentioned that Selesnya Charm wouldn't work. Then I was lying in bed and I suddenly thought 'or was it a 5/4 and I read it wrong? Then Selesnya Charm would be fine...' lol. This card has been on my mind a lot for some reason!

I think the cards show up tiny when you're replying in a thread, it happens to me too, but when I'm reading normally they show up big.
