About Kaervek's Torch

Kaervek's Torch, Sorcery, designed by John Coulthart first released in May, 2020 in the set Mirage and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.70.

Kaervek's Torch would benefit a burn deck that aims to deal direct damage to the opponent or their creatures quickly. While the additional cost for spells targeting it can be a downside, the potential to deal a significant amount of damage to any target can be powerful in closing out games. However, in more competitive settings, cards like Lightning Bolt or Chain Lightning may be more efficient choices due to their lower mana cost and immediate impact, making Kaervek's Torch less likely to see play in top-tier decks.
