REPRINT: Blaze.

by SecretInfiltrator:

That reminder text needs reminder text that tells me that if I spend {r} {r} {r} on Blaze on the other hand it deals only 2 damage.

edited the reminder text... {x} spells might be too much, even at uncommon

"on" -> "to cast"

by SecretInfiltrator:

NNWO includes that NWO is applied to uncommon (something I did not recall either until re-reading the article recently), so this is indeed going to receive a Red Flag at uncommon for using {x} .

by Vitenka:

Wait; seriously? Are they going to be at least printing boosters of nothing but rares?

by Tahazzar:

Heh, that's kind of funny.

I would be okay with pumping this up onto a rare slot.
Is it too lackluster power wise though? Maybe some other {x} burn spell for that slot instead? Volcanic Geyser? Or would instant speed be pushing it with {x} even at a rare slot?
