I love that we're finally seeing some cards that involve an expression of art - even if red's art all still involves fire. This card takes a lot of creativity (pun definitely intended) to build your own deck around. Lots of token generators and a single Blightsteel Colossus or the like makes something like a mono-red version of Tinker, but I really feel like it's more in the spirit of the card to cause complete chaos in multiplayer games. If someone (you, or a teammate or opponent) has enough targets in play, one person could cycle through their deck a couple of times or more from just one casting, as each target destroyed requires a separate trigger, and that alone is exactly the sort of thing we should aim for in multiplayer games.

Oh, boy. This is a "Polymorph" card. First off, unless you're certain your opponent has bad cards in their deck (or ones worse than what you're hitting), you're likely targeting your own things to go digging. It is a rare way for red to destroy creatures without question, but it's an awful kill spell.
 
This is a high risk, high reward card.  You can load up your board with lethal weapons to smash into your opposition, especially if you bin tokens, but it can put you in a weak state if you're not careful. This is more fun than effective, but sometimes that's all you need.
