In order to save his friends, Spike is forced to compete in a perilous Gauntlet for the title of Dragon Lord.

 

Haha!! I beat you to it this time, Shroom. I'm super jazzed for this episode, since it looks like it's another dragon one! I hope Spike gets some brownie points for good character development this time, since he was written so well with Starlight Glimmer in the first 2 episodes, which is a turn-up from being sidelined or outright shafted in such episodes as 'Princess Spike'. Also, I'm interested to see who's voicing that huge beast of a dragon in the trailer:

 

 

Also, I want the return of Crackle.

Oah! Yes I loved this one too. Good ol' Spikey-Wikey. :>

He did a tonne of good stuff this time, he's really maturing as a character.

I'm almost certain now that DHX are teasing us like crazy with a proper princess episode. Dammit guys, I want Celestia and Luna to do things! Still, it was nice to see them having tea and crumpets. xD

FINALLY. A solid, good Spike episode...and I really enjoyed the lore for the dragons. :D Ember and her father were pretty cool, too.

About time we had a good episode. This one actually had the charm of the first couple of seasons, my hopes are up for season 6 again. ^2^

Yeah, I think it was difficult before since we only had Spike and those few asshats from the dragon migration episode, but I reckon we've got a much nicer scope of what dragons of the MLP universe look like now. That said, you can't just append a different mane, tail and recolour them like ponies, which should mean there are still much fewer of them, but those that do exist will hopefully be more original.

I was kinda hoping that Spike would have ate the gem, on the scepter.

1st: loved the episode, first good Spike episode in a long while; not comic relief for once.
2nd: Ember is now among my favorite characters; up there with Flutters & Glimmer.
3rd: Oh, Ember wants us to fear her? Unfortunately Sweetie Bot tried the same thing; see how well that turned out.

Yet, all of her adversaries want to hug her. :P \)
