Firespitter Whelp — Ember on the Board
Firespitter Whelp is a compact Dragon that turns every noncreature or Dragon spell into incremental damage. Castable for {2}{R}, this 2 by 2 flying creature fits cleanly into aggressive red shells and spellslinger builds. Its repeated one point of damage scales with the tempo of your hand rather than raw size, so a hand full of burn and utility spells turns this whelp into steady reach against multiple opponents or a closing push against a single foe.
This Foundations printing shows the familiar engine in Light Play condition, suitable for play or collection. Use the Whelp to tax blockers, chip away at life totals, and pressure planeswalkers while keeping your curve low. It pairs naturally with cheap instants and sorceries and rewards sequencing and spell density. Add it to a deck looking for consistent, spell-driven damage and an evasive clock.
