Mountain is Blistercoil Weird.

This is a crazy simple combo. Cheap too. As long as you have red mana, you can have a VERY large Blistercoil Weird very quickly.

Unless I missed something, it only gets +2/+2 per turn. It needs to tap to activate Dual Casting. Not a bad combo, though.

I'm not sure what theotherguy is getting at, but this doesn't work. Here's the gatherer info on Dual Casting:

5/1/2012 The copy is created on the stack, so it's not "cast." Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell won't trigger. The copy will then resolve like a normal spell, after players get a chance to cast spells and activate abilities.

Since Blistercoil Wierd doesn't react to copied spells, only cast spells, this won't trigger his ability. He even has this ruling on Gatherer himself:

10/1/2012 If you copy an instant or sorcery spell on the stack (using Nivix Guildmage’s second ability, for example), the copy isn’t cast. Blistercoil Weird’s ability won’t trigger.

I wish it did work, I really do, I think it's a cool concept and it curves well, but alas, it is not meant to be.
