Personally think Arc Trail is better, but this is still a great card and will see play.

It's Inferno Titan without the 6/6 body...for half the price. Okay I guess.

Eek every bit of value out of Chandra the Firebrand's -2 with her signature spells.

Well, it's nice to see Arc Lightning back for limited at least, wish it had been an instant this time around.

The flexibility of this card is what defines it. Being able to take out beef, or wiping three teeny duders, really makes it. This is a great addition to a red burn deck, just like it's predecessor, Arc Lightning.
And hey -- now you can get more of them in your deck! If you... really need to, I guess?

Yeah I appreciate the functional reprint of Arc Lightning with some extra Chandra flavor. Pretty terrific in limited, but as far as constructed goes, not quite there. Most of the players who define my local meta (including myself obviously) opt for Arc Trail since the flexibility trade-off is rather marginal and the cost differential ( vs ) is, perhaps surprisingly, fairly substantial.

I am increasingly desiring Chandra's official, in multiverse, permanent death.
None of your burn goes to waste when you play this spell.

Use it to counter Vraska the Unseen's ultimate once Return to Ravnica hits? :p

I cannot fathom why this isn't rated at least 4 stars. Its 3 damage for 3 mana (splashable even) divided how you want it. Potential three-for-one's with this card; with Snapcaster Mage you can do it again (that's an investment of 8 mana to get rid of 6 creatures AND it replaces itself with a 2/1 bear). Its perfect to have 4 Pillar of Flame and then this in your three-drop slot for amazing removal. Go ahead and test it out at your next FNM and then come back and tell me this card isn't an All-Star.

Even as a sorcery, when compared to Pyrotechnics, the 3-mana cost sounds reasonable enough. It's no Arc Trail, but it still does its job fine in 2-to-1 your opponent.

This card is pretty solid, glad they made it.

I have a question: Is it possible to target the same creature 3 times, so that an abillity will trigger 3 times as well?

Edit: Dammit, I just read Oracle text .__.
Well, the idea of pinging a High Priest of Penance on a Darksteel Plate infinite times seems broken I guess.
