I personally don't feel that fire should have creatures like this. Fire element is based on sudden burst of high damage, not control-related cards like this. fits more to elements like entropy or gravity.

That's mostly what has so far, but I don't think that necessarily means that's all should ever get.

still making up my mind on this card personally. I feel like it doesn't quite fit , but then again some existing cards don't seem to quite fit where they are either.

a 1 cost creature that makes your opponent not want to cast an effect? it seems too op to me

[Avenger]

Not OP, but smells like or

[Higurashi]

I'd use this in Gravity, though probably only upped and in a rainbow with Unstoppables, perm control and Quints. Good partner to Lava Destroyer. Perfect against several FG's. I like the concept, all in all.
Didya get Ketka's permission to use the art commercially, or is it just until (potentially) later?

[~Napalm]

Hmmm, to appease those who think it's too much of a control type card, would you consider making the upped version 0/2 for 3 quanta that gains +1/+0 when any active ability is activated?

For example, It could fit in with Lava Rush decks, rebirth a phoenix, growth a golem, gain some extra attack power.

arguably, this would be hugely OP though, except that it's killed so easily

things to add to the earlier list of things that kill it:

  Otyugh- doesn't even need to be upped
  Gravity Pull
  siphon life
  Scarab (need 3 though...)
  Owl's/Eagle's Eye
  Thorn Carapace (after 2 turns)
etc, etc, etc

lobotamizable?

I'm in love with the ability and stats. Great job.
As others have already stated, i'm not 100% convinced it fits the fire theme, but it's a great card nonetheless.

lobotamizable?

Yes

Depending on how many skills get activated, you could see a quick, prolonged burst from it.  It's similar to the golem or spirit, but the player no longer gets to choose when to make the creature grow.

Some how I'm surprised that I haven't seen:

This+Fractal=OP

Other than that, I think this card is pretty cool.

Oh geez... Although I fail to see how this is any more OP than Fractal + Minor Phoenix

[EvaRia]

I was just thinking that if you have a lot of them, it will REALLY discourage use of abilities.
There ARE pretty easily dealt with, but who knows?

[ratcharmer]

This card with fractal would be pretty situational I think. For instance it'd be completely useless against any sort of straight rush deck.

I think I've come to the conclusion that I like this one . . .
