About Burst Lightning

Burst Lightning, Instant, designed by Jung Park first released in Jun, 2002 in the set Magic Online Promos and was printed exactly in 7 different ways. It see play in 2 formats: Commander and Alchemy. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.80.

Burst Lightning is a versatile burn spell that can be useful in aggressive red decks looking to close out games quickly or control decks seeking efficient removal. While Burst Lightning is a solid choice for decks needing flexible damage output, some may prefer more powerful options like Lightning Bolt for its immediate 3 damage or Skewer the Critics for its potential 3 damage at a lower cost, making Burst Lightning a strong but not always optimal inclusion in certain decks.
