Galvanoth


"Galvanoth" is a card from the "Mirrodin Besieged" set.  This particular card makes it very easy to run a red burn deck.  A 3/3 for 5 mana creature that at the beginning of your upkeep you may look at the top card of your library and if its and instant or sorcery cast it without paying its mana cost!!  The down side to this is that it does cost 5 mana to put out on the battlefield making it kind of hard to get this creature out early.  This is particularly hard especially in a pure red deck, however once it is out casting burn spells becomes possibly cheaper and easier.  In all a great card but as always in Magic it all depends on the draw.    

Great for red burn decks.

Good:
-Allows you to look at the top card of your library and if it is an instant or sorcery cast it for free if you choose.  
-Also a 3/3 creature if needed

Bad:
-Costs 5 mana to put onto the battlefield

Scully Rating: 8.5 out of 10
