A deck that focuses on aggressive strategies and attacking frequently would benefit from including Ancient Hellkite, as its ability to deal damage to a defending player's creatures can help clear the way for attacks and apply pressure. However, in a competitive setting, there are potentially better options available such as Stormbreath Dragon or Thundermaw Hellkite, which offer more immediate impact and versatility. While Ancient Hellkite may have a niche role in certain decks, it may not see widespread play in highly optimized decks.
