Oh, how I love this card. It might just be the best fuse card outright, just because the only thing it can't kill is hexproof; the creature has pro-red (IE, Lavinia)? Turn it, then Burn it. Creature has pro-blue (only one right now, Skylasher)? Burn. Opponent swinging at you with small, but annoying flyers? Turn one and block it, Burn the other. Thragtusk? Obzedat? AVACYN? Fuse, bam, dead, for potentially as little as UR if you've got Electromancers en masse.
@Diachronos, Wizards policy seems to basically be to print more versatile cards at slightly higher costs, kind of like how Izzet Charm has can reproduce the effects of different one-cost cards but costs two because it can be any of them. Besides, with this in the same colors as Electromancer, odds are you're already playing it for 2UR.
@skyxtome, this has already been brought up, but no. A fused card is still just one card, it basically translates to "so it's now like an ordinary spell instead of a split card".

It's a lot like fire/ice, whereas fire/ice is a bit better. It is cheaper, more flexible (can tap any permanent and split the burn) and cantrips. On the other hand, this can kill about any creature.

This is clearly a Texas Hold 'Em reference, so it should have been Burn // Turn; fusing still would have had the same effect. Flavor complaint aside...vera-nice.

So, if I have Guttersnipe out on the field and I cast both halves of the card to fuse them together would guttersnipe be effective for 4 damage since there's still two different spells? Or does the fuse make it just 2 damage?

One of the two actually good fuse spells with reasonable costs. Who'd a thunk it.
