    "Hi, this is Mike Lopez with Expert Village, and today we'll be discussing the red Magic color. Another powerful red card is the card Avarax. As you can see Avarax is a red creature. Its name's up here. It costs you three colorless and two red. He's a creature. He is a Beast. Over here you see he's an Uncommon. This insignia means it's from the Onslaught block. And, down here, we have a load of abilities he has. Once again his cost was five, three and two red. He has Haste which means whenever he comes into play he does not suffer from Summoning Sickness. And down here we have a really cool ability. Whenever Avarax comes into play you may search your library for a card named Avarax, another Avarax that you have in your deck, reveal it, and put it into your hand. So basically every time you play this you can go search for another one. Remember you can only have four in your deck, but basically you can have four of them out in four turns. Also down here we have Bolster. This is a Bolster that's a little more expensive because it's one colorless and one red, but for every Manna played this way you get 1/ 0 until the end of turn. He's a 3/3 creature, and once again he has one, two, three abilities, which normally costs you one Manna a piece. But instead of paying, once again we're getting a free ability which is Haste because it only costs you five to put him out instead of six. Which makes him very powerful."
