For Challenge # 091. Random generator first gave me Lightning Strike of all things, but I passed on that, since I didn't want it to look like I was trying to say something. Second hit gave me Aladdin's Ring. That card actually could use a functional reprint. And it would probably be uncommon nowadays, so doopadoo.
The flavor was tricky. I kept wanting to do something, like show where the blasting energy was coming from, or have some unique killing effect, but all those things lead to other designs. Then I stumbled upon something that should never pin-point precision, getting just that. Once again: doopadoo.
