Watered down lightning bolt, but still very effiecient and powerful. Red short list material, extremely useful to pick off creatures with so you can save the bolts and the incinerates for the player! -- By Nick from Tampa on October 30, 2004 |

The sucessor to Lightning Bolt, every player needs a game set of four. I've seen this card swing tournaments all by itself. -- By John Taylor from everywhere and nowhere on January 09, 2006 |

yep have 4 of them, 4 lightning bolts, a couple of incinerates, and 4 volcanic hammers among other things in my red direct damage deck. Makes many people at my school at that deck since everything is cheap in it. -- By Anonymous from Wichita,KS on October 12, 2006 |

Shock is great early removal or cool late game burn. By itself, shock is indeed a lesser powered Lightning Bolt, but its low cost and commonality mean that its splashable in almost any deck type that includes red. Many other more powerful spells exist however. Tarfire is arguably a better card, being able to be retrieved with Wort or tutored up with a Harbinger, but shock is a classic and borders on iconic. Still, if you want to burn something, there are bigger better options that should be thrown into the mix along with this bad boy. -- By Topher from Eau Claire, WI on January 28, 2008 |
