{{user commentary|
They are creatures summoned from the [[Plane of Fire|Elemental Plane of Fire]].
In their animations, Fire Elementals definitely look like they fly like Superman, but actually they don't. Additionally, both Fire and Energy Elementals have the lowest damage average among level 4 creatures (which can be fixed by having {{H|Ignissa|Planeswalker}} or {{H|Fiur|Planeswalker}} command them as they add +2 to their base damage) while still being as expensive as other same level creatures. Good growth and flight make Energy Elementals usable although far from exceptional.

Some may find the information in this section subjective or irrelevant.

In their animations, Fire Elementals definitely look like they fly like Superman, but actually they don't. Additionally, both Fire and Energy Elementals have the lowest damage average among level 4 creatures (which can be fixed by having IgnissaIgnissa Ignissa the Planeswalker or FiurFiur Fiur the Planeswalker command them as they add +2 to their base damage) while still being as expensive as other same level creatures. Good growth and flight make Energy Elementals usable although far from exceptional.


HotA increased the power of Protection from Fire (this only affects the spellcasting of the upgraded Energy Elementals, however).
