oh my god - does drawing a card really cost 6? I haven't seen 7 land in play with my red deck since people told me Trained Orgg was a bad card!

Probably a strong contender for the worst MTG card I have ever seen... 0.5/5

@stormkeeper
Why would you ever give this even a 2/5? Does this card seem "below average but playable" to you?

The dumb part here is there is sort of a formula with cantrips that this card doesnt even follow. We wll use Volcanic Hammer as the base card here because back then that was the standard. Cantrip cost 2 colorless, and sometimes red card made it cost 1 more mana. that brings us to 4R at the highest. I still am not sure why they made this cost so much. That said...I am sure there is a place for this in a red deck somewhere that doesn't run blue

This should have cost 2Red.
1Red for Searing Spear and 1 for the cantrip.

Even when I started the game, I understood that this card was only meant to be played in limited. But even back (started at end of onslaught block just as mirrodin came out) I hated this card and found it to be worthless.

One of the few OP spells in Magic to take out a Storm Crow.
