"Hi, this is Mike Lopez for Expert Village and today we'll be discussing the red Magic color. Now we're going to discuss Fire breathing. Fire breathing is also another Enchantment from the red. It costs you one, it's an Enchant creature card, like almost all red Enchantments. It's a Common, and is very useful in Goblin, small creature decks because once again, you pay a red and because Enchanted creature has Fire breathing now you add 1/ 0 until the end of turn for every red Manna you paid this way. Which means it's not a tap effect. Which means you can bolster him up as much as you want and this is very good to use because of creatures like the Duct Crawler. Here we have, once again, a 1/1 creature. He's a very small creature, other than blocking he doesn't really do much. Now, Fire breathing allows him to take out creatures if he's blocking. Also he has the ability, one and a red, which takes blockers out of his way. Which means, not only can he do that, say you have a blocker in the way you could pay one and a red and then if you have more red Manna... Let's say you have five more red Manna, then you could burn those five red Manna to bolster him up five times. Which means now you just got the blocker out of the way and just hit your opponent for six damage rather than just the one."

on 8/17/2009 You're ruining the color red. Nevermind, you're ruining magic. If they block your creature, and then you make it unblockable - it's still blocked, it still deals damage to it's blockers. This is just like if you give something flying after blockers, moron.
