This is in the same deck as that Simic mana chicken. The absolute lack of synergy between the pairs (Kraum + Sidar as well) is just mind-blowing. The only exception is Silas + Bruse, as that at least kind of has something going there.
EDIT: I retract my sentiment, there's some possibility of synergy between them. Teferi's Puzzle Box your hand away, tap mana chicken for gargantuan tap, dome someone for 12 off Blightsteel Colossus cast? At least that's something in the realm of possibility. Kraum + Sidar just leaves me speechless though.
I wonder if this little guy is from Tarkir? Looks like he is playing around with Kolaghan, the Storm's Fury brood. I love this card actually. He is might make a decent stand alone commander. Maybe mix in Green to get some big spells in.

To the people that say that a card needs to be a higher rarity because of Limited... I hate you guys so much. I present to you with this.

Vial Smasher is from Tarkir, Kreines links one of her stories in the tweet.

I don't follow. The "Mana Chicken" ramps, this deals damage equal to a spells CMC. Higher CMC, Higher damage, no? What's the best way to get into those higher CMC? Ramp, right? Oh yeah, that pairing allows you to run AlternateCost spells that are actually good. I'm sure you will be cursing that "anti-synergy" when it shows up at a table near you.

She's the alternate time line version of Ankle Shanker

Vial Smasher was featured in two or three Uncharted Realms articles. She was a little goblin in Kolaghan. She interacted with Sarkhan here and there.

Yeah, I figured out something along those lines not long after I posted. I'm still a bit fiercely disappointed that they weaselled their way out of making more "proper" 4 colour creatures, so I missed it at first. I edited my post just as you quoted me and justly kicked me in the shins
Just need a Boros or Orzhov commander to pair with her to make Mardu Goblins. preferebly a goblin but if it doesn't happen just need the color identity for Mardu

Yeah, and their deck focuses on playing stuff off the top at random, which means cheating in big stuff. Mana chicken helps cast that stuff if you happen to draw it, Vial Smasher makes opponents hurt when you flip or cast the big stuff.
Kraum isn't the main izzet legend of that deck, Ludevic is, and I bet he makes 2/2 flying zombie tokens.

Check out the thread for my cube if you have the time, and tell me how terrible it is.
Generals meant to be drafted first in a single pack of 6 cards.
And here is the actual cube, meant to be drafted in 4 regular sized packs. (60 card decks)

And, once again, you have a point. All the "functional" pairs with some level of synergy involve two mythics. Kraum is just a rare. Maybe the rares are generic enemy pair "goodstuff" building blocks to mix and match to your heart's content? I guess we'll see. Apologies for the display, and now I'm starting to brew a sans-white deck in the back of my mind.
...I have no idea why I remember her name when it only showed up once, in a Planeswalker's Guide article, but I do, and I'm happy to see her. Like the card, too. If she doesn't end up fitting in a Commander deck for me, I'd be glad to have her in my 60-card Grixis deck that's pretty much all about cheating high mana costs (delve, emerge, etc).
Also, the fact that she's a Tarkir character means that they reached fairly recent for some of their commanders, which means that the Taigam card people have been wanting is a legitimate possibility - I'm guessing he'd be the UW Partner legend.

This counts the first spell you cast in your opponent's turn too so you may want to use a bunch of instants and creatures with flash with her.

I want to live the dream and fireblast you for 10 in Legacy Burn but with the hoops I don't see it working out consistently
Am already wanting to fit her in my Rakdos deck.
he's crazy!
Bananas with Abundant Maw, Bedlam Reveler, Gush, Force of Will, Thunderous Wrath, Treasure Cruise and the list goes.
man, I'm making a deck with this dude, he deserves it.
