Charizard, being my favorite Pokmon, always seems to have the coolest cards in my binders
Its drawback may look like its very punishing and can allow the opponent to surprise you via a mid-combat spell, but I never really saw that scenario play out since its damage prevention ability is a a conditional static ability so as long as its on when damage is dealt, it wont be prevented. (Thank you, @fenaris!) It usually plays out somewhat like a colorless Ashenmoor Gouger / Chimeric Idol where you typically dont bother trying to block with it (why am I blocking with my aggro guys anyway?) and, if need be, you cast a spell pre-combat to activate it (typically I used a large coin, like a quarter, to denote whether it was on or off)
Adapt to Your Opponent : Be ready to adjust your strategy based on the cards your opponent plays
Shes not hard to turn on, and growing the team alongside an untap is a kingly gift
