What Karma and Gezuz said.
This card is not bad at all. In a late game, anytime you draw a land, you can fry another weenie of theirs, or utility creature, instead of just doing noting. What's not to like so much ?

CARD ADVANTAGE, folks. This bolt can take away 2 critters with one card.

Arachi is totally right. Once Spikes say something about a concept in Magic it ends up being gospel. Instants are usually more versatile than Sorceries but have less power.

In my experience playing mono-red in different formats sorceries actually hose counterspell decks because they let you drop mountain after mountain while they sit on that mana-leak doing nothing.

Once they finally tap some lands to play something you get to cast something like a Koth of The Hammer to bait a counterspell then have enough mana up to simply cast a 2nd Koth or browbeat etc.

Every time I beat control decks with mono red control they call me a noob and worse names. I just laught at their useless open islands. Blue is SO BORING!

Kids don't realize that it's recursion, If things don't end up going the way you want and the games still going at 5 lands and no hand you can still hit them for 2 instead of sitting there with a dumb look on your face and saying go. Far better than shock.

This card is great. It was a staple of red decks for quite some time. Yea it could be an instant or it could do 3 instead of 2, but back then Lightening bolt was a $15 card so things like shock and firebolt were heavily used.
