Disintegrate

Yet another Fireball poseur. This one's not too bad, providing the possible Haakon solution or confounding regenerators, but those clauses come up rarely. For the most part, it's just Blaze, which is often good enough right there.

Constructed- 3
Casual- 3.5
Limited- 4

Disintegrate

When Ravnica was around, Disintegrate was overshadowed by Demonfire (for some reason; in the whole eighteen months Dissension was in Standard, I only saw about two Demonfires go hellbent). There's not that excuse now, and people play Disintegrate in R/G Mana Ramp decks as one of the finishers. It unfortunately falls to Rune Snag, but it sends Haakon and Masked Admirers far beyond Vanaheim, and that's a good enough reason to play it in a deck that has abundant mana.

Constructed: 3/5
Casual: 2/5
Limited: 2/5

Thursday's card is Disintegrate. Disintegrate is along the lines of red's X damage spells, but from the old wording, I'm not sure if target refers to just creatures or a creature or player. Even so, you can permanently get rid of a painful creature with Disintegrate as long as it doesn't have Shroud or Protection from Red. If you got the red mana, Disintegrate can be a great creature killer or perhaps a late game finisher if you can target a player.

Limited:3/5
Constructed:3/5
