I like the old art better.

Red just should not have library manipulation, 6/5
And alas, we have more lost Avacyn Restored art.

I run four in my vintage burn deck:
Orodruin
1 Wheel of Fortune
4 Ball Lightning
4 Chain Lightning
4 Fireblast
4 Flame Rift
4 Flamebreak
4 Lava Spike
4 Lightning Bolt
4 Magma Jet
4 Rift Bolt
4 Searing Blaze
2 Scalding Tarn
17 Mountain
60 Total
It's helped innumerable times to get out of land messes.
I can't believe WotC opted to lose any Justin Sweet art, though. Bad idea, IMHO.

Newer players might be fooled and think the 1 extra damage provided by Searing Spear (w/e its reprint is called) might make that card better, but the ability to bottom those extra lands you'd be drawing in your aggressive deck is invaluable. There's a reason some modern burn decks play this.

Likely gonna see the mainboard of my gruul standard deck. While I prefer Mizzium Mortars' straight up power for removal (2 extra punching power and 4 extra mana punches through hexproof), the flexibility of being able to burn someone's face and scry for 2 is fantastic.
Plays well with Firedrinker Satyr.

Efficient enough and Scry 2 gives many more options than just Scry 1. 4/5.

So, damn, good. Love the new artwork too. Scry 2 in Red you have to realize is very powerful. 4.5/5

*Eh, hem!* Technically, magma becomes lava when it reaches the earth's surface so I'm sorry wizards, but you misnamed this card.
Now, being *** aside, I absolutely love this card. It should be a 4 of in every red burn deck in standard hands down. Red is infamous for losing gas inthe late game but between this and the new Chandra, red now has some draw/fixing to use as extra fuel to keep throwing on the fire!

Planeswalker 1 : "Would you consider using shock?"
Planeswalker 2: "Uhh.. I might."
Planeswalker 1: "Would you pay (1) to control the next two cards of your library and lean toward favorable outcomes?"
Planeswalker 2: "..Yea that's really efficient, i'd play that."
Planeswalker 1: "Meet your new girlfriend, Magma 'Joan' Jet."
