Grim Lavamancer

Phoenix Card Frequency

I just want to say on behalf of all the red mages out there, please stop giving us a Mythic Phoenix every. single. time... No one asked for this. You literally could have re-printed Grim Lavamancer and made it Mythic, and it would have been more welcomed, AND on theme with the set. Just sayin'... Thank you!

Two things: 1) Phoenixes have many fans. 2) Of the nineteen phoenixes printed only five were printed at mythic rare (although one other was reprinted at mythic rare).

Grim Lavamancer Naming

Why wasn't Grim Lavamancer just called Lavamancer?

He was in his youth, but adulthood had been rough on him.

Red's Graveyard Mechanic

Has Red lost it's ability to eat things out of the graveyard to deal damage like Grim Lavamancer dose?

That’s something nowadays red only does in sets with a graveyard component.

Red's Graveyard Interaction

Why doesn't red get more graveyard hate? Grim Lavamancer, Harvest Pyre, Past in Flames, Incinerate and Pillar of Flame all exist. What prevents red from getting cards like cremate / purify the grave, and/or mass graveyard removal?

Red tends to keep things from going to the graveyard rather than remove them from the graveyard.
