Name:
Searing Wave
Cost: 5
Civilization: Fire
Type: Spell

Flavor Text:
Surf's up!
Mana Number: 1
Artist: Dustmoss
Rarity: U
Collector Number: 41
Set: Rampage of the Super Warriors
This card has
lost a lot of popularity due to fire's other
destruction cards, namely Apocalypse Vice.
Civilisation:
The Fire
Civilisation specialises in creature kill and
this card is one of the best cards available at
the moment.
Cost:
This card
costs 5 mana to cast, where most people would
have a few creatures on the field, so this card
can be used quite well.
Effect:
This card has
2 effects:
1: Destroy
all your opponent's creatures that have power
3000 or less.
This is a
very powerful effect, it can wipe out all your
opponents little guys in one hit and this card
only costs 5.
2: Choose one
of your shields and put it into your graveyard.
This is the
drawback for this card, however if you have no
shields it is not much of a drawback, this
effect balances the card and doesn't make it too
powerful.
Limited:
Take this
card, it slams all your opponents weenies and
even Angler Clusters, which are the main
blockers in this set.
4/5
Constructed:
This card has
lost a lot of power thanks to Apocalypse Vice,
as most of the time you won't allow your
opponent to get much field pressence, but it is
still playable.
3/5
