This card would be beneficial in a red aggressive deck that aims to quickly establish board presence and pressure opponents. The ability to become the monarch upon entering the battlefield provides card advantage and a powerful incentive for opponents to attack, potentially dealing significant damage based on their hand size. While Emberwilde Captain is a strong option for such a strategy, other cards like Monastery Swiftspear or Goblin Guide may be more efficient choices for aggressive red decks, depending on the overall game plan and synergy with other cards. However, Emberwilde Captain can still be a viable inclusion in certain deck builds that focus on maintaining the monarch status and punishing opponents for attacking.
