Spikeshot Elder


"Spikeshot Elder" is a card from the "Scars of Mirrodin" set.  This card is one that just plain doesn't get enough credit.  "Spikeshot Elder" is a 1/1 for 1 red mana that has the ability to deal damage equal to its power to target creature or player for 3 mana.  This ability can be very useful in terms of indirect damage and not to mention if you simply put an enchantment on this creature to increase his power then for 3 mana he can be your most valuable ally.  

Great for red decks and red/green decks.

Good:
-a 1/1 for 1 mana with that ability for red...why not!!!
-ability has the potential to get very big

Bad:
-requires a power boost to be deadly

Scully Rating: 8.5 out of 10
