Ragefire Hellkite

A 5/3 for six is a body built to hit, not to survive, and that thin toughness is the entire wager: this Dragon treats combat as a transaction. The sacrifice triggers when it attacks, during declare-attackers, which means you feed it a spare creature before blockers are on the table. You commit the fodder blind, betting that turning five power into a ten-damage swing beats whatever the opponent leaves back. The double strike then rides through the whole combat rather than a single hit, but the decision itself is made without information: no waiting to see the blocks, no reading the board first. That front-loaded gamble, paired with the demand for expendable creatures to eat, reroutes the card away from being a clean finisher and toward the top of a red curve that already spends bodies. The Dragon has long been red's badge for a big flying threat, and most of them lean on a durable frame you cast and coast behind. This one trades that durability for a sacrifice-fueled burst, asking you to pay resources at the top of the turn and stake the swing on a guess rather than simply resolve it and win.
