About Direct Current
Direct Current, Sorcery, designed by Dan Murayama Scott first released in Oct, 2018 in the set Guilds of Ravnica and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 3909.96.
Direct Current can be a valuable addition to a red aggressive deck looking to maintain pressure on the opponent by dealing direct damage while also providing card advantage through its jump-start ability. However, in a competitive setting, cards like Lightning Bolt or Skewer the Critics may offer more efficient or versatile options for direct damage, potentially making them better choices depending on the specific strategy and metagame. Overall, Direct Current could see play in certain budget or casual decks, but may not be a top choice for more competitive or optimized red decks.
Rules
10/05/18
If an effect allows you to pay an alternative cost rather than a spell’s mana cost, you may pay that alternative cost when you jump-start a spell. You’ll still discard a card as an additional cost to cast it.
10/05/18
You must still follow any timing restrictions and permissions, including those based on the card’s type. For instance, you can cast a sorcery using jump-start only when you could normally cast a sorcery.
