This card is good in ANY limited format. Dont underestimate the power of 3 damage at insant speed. Plus Lightning Bolt is over powered anyways.

To me it just feels like a more modern version of Incinerate seeing as regeneration is hardly used now a days and makes for a rather clunky wording on a card that prevents regeneration

I'd rather have Incinerate. Even Shock is more cost-effective than this.

So much that I could say, but it boils down into one sentence:

Strictly WORSE than Lightning Bolt.

Both of this and incinerate are great, but I think incinerate had a better name
"I'm going to incinerate your creature!" sounds better than "I'm going to searing spear your creature."
Still, a decent card, but I think incinerate was a very fair card by itself.

So this card exists. And they say Red doesn't have any good cards in Standard! Humph! Now to go craft the crappiest RDW deck ever!

oh come on, Incinerate and Lightning Bolt will cycle back around, and i'm sure they'll give us at least one Standard-playable burn spell in RtR.

At least Volcanic Hammer was a HAMMER.

Incinerate is what I think all Burn should aspire to. I think even Lightning Bolt can learn something from Incinerate. (You aren't a real Red Spell if you don't have a Jaya Ballard Quote)

I wrote to Wizards saying I sort of like what they're doing to make Regenerate relevant, but that a) Fire should get to beat Regenerate, according to everything I know about Trolls, b) if White and Black don't have it, giving it to Red doesn't screw Regenerate too badly and c) JAYA. BALLARD. GIVE ME BACK MY INCINERATE! :P

I urge everyone to send similar emails to MaRo because they only do things that lots of people write in about.

I dunno, I find it kinda endearing. But yeah, Incinerate will be missed.

4 Damage would have been nice.
