About Homing Lightning

Homing Lightning, Instant, designed by Slawomir Maniak first released in February 2013 in the set Gatecrash and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It see play in 1 format: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.04.

A deck focused on creature-heavy strategies, such as tribal decks or decks with multiple copies of the same creature, would benefit from using Homing Lightning. However, for more efficient removal options, cards like Anger of the Gods or Pyroclasm may be better choices as they offer more flexibility and can deal with a wider range of threats. Homing Lightning could see play in specific metagames where the ability to target multiple creatures with the same name is particularly relevant.

Rules

06/10/2022

Unless a token is a copy of another permanent or was explicitly given a name by the effect that created it, its name is the subtypes it was given when it was created plus the word "Token." For example, if an effect creates a 1/1 Soldier creature token, that token is named "Soldier Token."

01/24/2013

Homing Lightning has only one target. Other creatures with that name are not targeted. For example, a creature with hexproof will be dealt damage if it has the same name as the target creature.
