Good against fog

I love the flavor text. Card is somewhat outdated. But dosen't hurt to have around.

Use Unstable Footing instead.

Thank you for mentioning Unstable Footing achilleselbow! I was about to put this in my deck til you said that! Thanks :D

I don't think this is that bad at all - I'd still rather run Unstable Footing, but the flashback that this can offer means that it's a great card against Safe Passage

I don't use Unstable Footing, I use Leyline of Punishment. But I'd rather use this for the recursion.

I'd run this and Unstable footing - this can be used twice

The flashback is relevant against Moment's Peace and Constant Mists

When it comes to inflicting prolonged and intense pain on your enemies, salt is a tried and true technique. However, the amount you need to carry to be relevant on today's battlefield is simply not practical any more. That's why I use Volcanis(tm) brand wound-rubbing sulfur for my pain flaring needs. In addition to having a far lower effective dose compared to leading competitors, it comes with patented easy-spread pouch technology allowing the sulfur compound to be applied to distant enemies and even entire battlefields at once! Volcanis: Effective pain infliction you can trust.

Honestly? The real reason I use this card?

Burning Vengeance. It's a card that costs {R} to flashback. I believe it's actually the cheapest monored flashback in the game.

Aside from the possible use of flashback, you'll probably want to play Skullcrack instead.
The flavor text is at least equally cruel, though.
