Looking forward to playing him in casino mage.
Getting Rafaam's Scheme and Elemental Evocation sadge
There's only 3 Fire Warlock spells in Standard - Arson Accusation, Hellfire, and Immolate. Of these, I think the only one you seriously want is Hellfire, the others are usually pretty bad.
The Mage spells, on the other hand, are better but still not amazing. Flame Geyser and Fireball are the stickout good options, though Firelands Portal and Explosive Runes are also pretty good.
Immolate can win games on it's own vs control
There's a reason nobody plays immolate. Maybe if it was 2 or 3 mana...
Pyroblast as well.
I dunno, Immolate would be a useful pull against slower decks, especially on curve.
The decks which would realistically run this do not want Immolate, at all. Burn Mage is already strong against control. It doesn't need Immolate to make an already favorable matchup even better. Implock is a fast aggressive deck, spending your turn 4 doing nothing is very much so not what the deck wants to be doing. And this is all ignoring the fact that most opponents are not control decks, they're aggro decks where you'd be looking pretty silly if you slammed Immolate on 4.
As Mantis said, there's a reason nobody plays Immolate. Having to play a 3 mana 3/2 to get it only makes Immolate worse.
Mage can arson accusation>ping their own face for an assassinate.
Niche but not bad.
Small card pool so should provide some consistency. I like the lil guy.
I like that they print this card when Warlock has notably just 3 Fire Spells in standard, and one is Immolatewhich is a card that you don't even want for free.
And in Wild I could say that the only good hit is... Backfire, or even Hellfire, but the rest are very situational, or just bad, specially in Mage.
But a little guy that gives you some value is always welcome, I don't know if you care about the cards this give so much, but its a cute card.
