Unless Truefire Captain finds a home in deck (perhaps knight tribal), I don’t think this will see constructed play. I say that because the utility of playing this on an opponent’s chump blocker to add 7 damage to the captain’s trigger might be useful, but even then I feel that’s a reach and there are better cards that kind of deck would want to play.
I think I traded a dual land for one of these back in 94.
Sounds like something I would have done. This card blew my mind back then. Fortunately (?) for me, I never had my hands on any duals to make that mistake.
As much as I understand the need for new art, the Fifth Edition art always struck me as one of the most expressive pieces of Magic art ever printed. I would have loved to see that used again, especially considering how well that particular art fits the theme of the set.
