after having all the cards that deal two damage and some other effect, it's good to see the cla^ssic burn spell back. with all of the burn we've been getting use to, this is just another hurdle to get over, and I expect to see lots of lightning bolt/ball lightning decks again.
Flavor text is the best ^.^
Slightly broken, but then again, all the colors seem to be getting a boost so whatever.
Lightning, btw, does strike twice.

The gold standard for burn spells.

@DoctorKenneth: You, sir, are a legend =
And this card is amazingly. Best word I can use to describe it.

This is surely one of the greatest cards of all time because:
A) Low mana cost
B) Instant
C) three damage rules out a lot of creatures.
D) common and easy to find.

I don't like this very much. It may be a good burn spell (if not the best) but with this reprint all the other burn spells like Firebolt, Rift Bolt or Shock are totally weak in comparision.
I not even dare to mention Volcanic Hammer...

Arguably the best burn spell ever made. Cheap and effective--that's what players want.

All I'm gonna say here is that the Lightning Bolt has got to be the MOST Uncommon, Common card in existance. After close to 30 booster packs and NOT one of them had a lightning bolt in them.
