Skoa, Embermage: Flamebound Goblin Wizard
Skoa, Embermage is a flame wielding goblin wizard that fits a burn plan from the start. It enters the battlefield and immediately deals 4 damage to any target, giving you a quick spike on turn two or three. The card supports a spell slinger strategy with efficient redundancy and helps pressure life totals with reliable direct damage. The flavor and look of the card align with the set's red hot energy and a quick spark in the early game.
Grandeur offers a second chance to push damage by discarding another Skoa, Embermage. Sacrifice two Mountains: Skoa deals 4 damage to any target. I need kindling. You'll do nicely. This card slots into burn and tempo decks, where a quick ping followed by another strike can close out a game once you have the mana to press through blockers.
