The best red creature ever printed imo. Full of primitive elegance.

Who cares about the graveyard when playing red? A reusable two to the head? Yes please.

Hard to imagine a 1-drop that would be more effective for red. Virtually any burn deck is complimented by this guy almost perfectly, especially since the 2 points can be targeted at both a creature and a player.

5/5

This card is literally SOOO good! I just had the honor of being able to play with it for the first time last night. I picked up a Fire and LIghtning deck (which has a whole bunch of good stuff!!) and this was in it, which i'm sure most of you already know. But this card is always relevant. There's constantly a flow of cards going into my graveyard and the two damage seemed to always be relevant to what was going on in the game. I give this guy a solid 5/5 no doubt!

Shock is only bad when compared to Lightning Bolt. You only get 4 bolts (Unless you're Valakut). With cards like this and Seismic Assault, you never run out of "Shocks".

To make Brother Grim here, Wizards set out to make a Tim that could deal 2 damage but wasn't broken. Then, they failed.

Fortunately we still love him.

for each 2 shocks you cast, one has flashback. hell yeah. plus if you dont use your graveyard anyway its a great continuing bonus. 5/5, since it has no backdraws.
