There are few other combo opportunities. I admit, I am playing devils advocate, and I do not run this card in my decks, but I kind of wish I could. The problem essentially involves keeping the card alive till the next round, or making it quicker, or somehow playable in the first round (i.e. with Druid's Innervate). I guess this card's problems outweigh its possibilities. Even if you can stealth it, it can be killed easily by RNG damage from e.g. Mad Bomber or Knife Juggler... Yeah, difficult.
Who knows, maybe a future batch of cards will somehow make Magma Rager viable?
Just make this a 5/2 ffs. Right now not only are its stats stupid, but they're also below the normal 2m+1 that minions without abilities are supposed to have.
It still needs two cards where a flamestrike takes one (Even if its one dmg less it is still better), and if you're playing warlock Ancient Watchers are the way to go because they can combo with the Owl (Silence it, it can attack), the Argus (+1/+1 taunt), the sunfury (taunt again) where being 5/1 this card would just combo with shadowflame and nothing else.
Strictly more awesome looking than Ice Rager.
I used to thought having him for Shadowflame is nice..
Good-night, sweet prince;
And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.
ice > magma
This card combos well with Commanding Shout and Charge. Also with Rogue stealth giving cards. Also with Paladin's Cogmaster, Hand of Protection, Noble Sacrifice, Equality (in that it is not affected... lol... pls note I am joking here), Argent Protector...

Why is a gold version of this the level 51 shaman reward?
Because he is a Elemental

huh weird
Well to be fair, it does trade with cards like shield masta and yeti...as well as blackwing technition.
Higher attack may be in high demand now......then again, against mage it's only useful as a decoy.
Haha, worst card in a game officially confirmed!
