Molten Birth

Two bodies for three mana is the honest floor this trades against, and the coin flip is the gambler's tax bolted on top: win it and the spell snaps back to your hand, ready to make two more next turn; lose it and you got exactly what the rate promised and nothing more. The design lives in the variance, not the floor. That floor is fair enough (two evasionless 1/1s for three is reasonable go-wide and sacrifice fodder) that the refund clause never stings when the flip goes against you; the spell paid for itself the moment it resolved. What it offers instead is a high-roll ceiling that compounds: chain a few winning flips and you have buried a board in chump blockers, fed an aristocrats engine, or just kept recasting the same sorcery until the coins turn cold. This sits in red's lineage of coin-flip cards, where the payoff is deliberately decoupled from the cost so the gamble reads as pure upside rather than a real hit to your tempo. The two tokens are what make chasing that variance safe; without them, a 50/50 to refund a do-nothing spell would be unplayable. The flip is the flavor and the fun, but the bodies are what let you actually run it.
