In serious constructed
decks, Dragonspeaker Shaman won't make the cut due
to the fact that most dragons probably don't make
the cut. In casual constructed, this could be
included though as dragons will be much more
popular in that particular format. We sell a lot
of these guys on our Website along with our
dragons. In
limited, if you have a dragon, I would consider
playing this guy. He's not a horrible creature in
and of itself as a 2/2 for 3 mana. If you are
lucky enough to get 2 dragons in limited, you
definitely play it as long as you have the red to
support it.
Constructed: 2
Limited: 3.25 |

A cost reducer on
Dragons. Unfortunately, Dragons are just too
slow, even with a reduced cost. In casual, this
is fine. Otherwise, skip it. In both constructed
and limited.

In constructed its not that good unless
your play some kind of Vegis/Dragon deck in block.
In limited its just a bad morph unless your
playing several dragons to make it worth your
time, but that should and most likely never
happen.

Ok, first off, I want
so say one thing. This card does not make
Dragonstorm
or Day of the Dragons cost 2 less! I have gotten
into so many fights with
people who argue that it does. "Dragon spells you
play cost 2 less to play"
The {dragon spells} refers to cards that are
dragon type. It does not refer
to cards with "dragon" in its name. The type is
printed directly under the
card art. If "dragon" isn't printed there, it is
not a {dragon spell}
OK, now on to the review : )
Dragons are big and..well.BIG. And if you're not
careful, they'll eat ya. A
card that lets you get those beast sticks out even
faster is great. I would
say RG dragon decks with mana acceleration are
better then RB. Dragonspeaker
Shaman, elves, land search cards let you get those
dragons out fast. And, I
have to say Kev Walker did wonderful on this art,
like always.

is interesting, 3 mana for a 2/2 isn't great but
it isn't horrible either if the card's abilities
are strong enough. Sad to say I don't think a mana
bump on dragons is so huge. One of the main
reasons is because most dragons are highpriced
with colored mana and not colorless. Overall, not
a great card.

a dragon deck, duh - 2.00
