This is everything I imagined it would be. 4 damage gives some reach, indestructable enables swings that would be dangerous otherwise plus dodging sweepers, and double strike is simply good.

Quotes from gaming:
From a discussion about skipping town and fleeing from the law:
"Quick, torch the legal system and run!" said no one, ever.
While trying to ambush a creature who favored grabbing and strangling PCs:
"Ok, so Tieflings are resistant to fire, right?" "Right" "Alright, so I light myself on fire so he can't grab me."
More Boros goodness flows! They've been seriously getting short-changed on the number of previews they've been getting, but it looks like tonight is their night to shine.
W may only be paid with white mana. U may only be paid with blue mana. B may only be paid with black mana. R may only be paid with red mana. G may only be paid with green mana. C may only be paid with colorless mana. 1 may be paid with white, blue, black, red, green, or clolorless mana.
Freaking amazing. I'd go as far as to say better than Selesnya Charm, or at the very least comparable in power. This is everything we wanted for Rakdos Charm, and more.
The first mode is a 2 mana Lava Axe (Well, close to a Lava Axe) at instant speed! And that's just one of them. The second one lets you survive boardwipes and combat. The third is kinda overkill, and seems a bit redundant with the first two (Which provide damage and survivability), but it allows you to take out larger blockers and gets amazing with cards like Stonewright.
Another charm that fits the color pair but doesn't really fit the guild. The only thing that fits is the indestructable. Everything else seems backwards. They're not a direct damage type of guild (unless it hits creatures) and double strike seems strange when the idea is to swing with an army. It should have been each attacking creature gets +2/+0, or Indestructable, or 4 damage to a creature.
I just realized that it's "permanents you control" are indestructible this turn. Very interesting phrasing. Go ahead and cast Obliterate, lol. This charm is bonkers good! Bonkers, I say!
This is just nasty good. I love how strong these charms are looking. This one is just a get in and finish the job sort of thing. Combat tricks, anti-Verdict, 1/5th of someone's life total. Very impressed

Card seems sick. Lots of utility.
Awesome card, anti wrath and alpha enabler in one card. I very much like this.
I was just talking with a friend about what gives double strike at instant speed. That'd be Double Cleave, which is two mana also. Wow.
This may be the most efficient charm of the whole cycle.
Best aggro charm yet?

Convenient Flame Rift. Double strike for saboteurs.
Clearly forged of the strongest stuff. A spell I will fear for all time.

Not the first time we've had one in Ravnica.

Fits Boros so perfectly that they needed to get the guy named Boros to make the art.
I wonder if that was intentional, actually.
I am NOT going to enjoy playing against this
