***** The best red card ever printed. A must for any sligh a must for any red deck. It is so powerful they never even thought about reprinting it. Its good 1 mountain for 3 damage. WATCH OUT BELOW!!!!!!!
  -- By Zakk Howell from Tiffin, Ohio on April 18, 2001
***** This is perhaps the best direct damage spell ever made. It can only be played in Type 1 and 1.5, but it should be played in red decks in these formats, such as Sligh, Ponza, and Land Destruction. It can kill practically any creature that comes out on the first turn, and can be used to kill your opponent when they're low on life. I use four in my Sligh deck and I always will. They're just THAT good.
  -- By Tim Destan from Gilbertsville, PA USA on June 25, 2001
***** Perhaps the best direct damage spell ever printed, Lightning Bolt will forever be used at full capacity in red extended decks. A first turn Bolt can quickly create doubt in an opponent's mind, fearing what may follow it. Seeing as it's an instant, Bolt can eliminate many creature threats before they get the chance to attack or use their ability. Since the card will probably never be printed again, it would be wise to get as many as possible while the opportunity is here.

***** YES-YES-YES! this card is the greaterst. 3dmg for 1 red mana good?
  -- By tim funck from stockholm, sthlm sweden on December 29, 2001
***** 3 damage for one mana is unbelievable, great card for direct damage deck, or any red deck.
  -- By nick conrad from wilson, ny USA on January 08, 2002
***** This is the best red direct damage card ever printed! One mana for a 3 damage instant that can damage creatures as well as players. A must for any red deck!
  -- By Anonymous from Ontario Canada on January 30, 2002
***** This card kick ass!!! I have four of them in my deck and it's one of the most damaging card in early turns.
  -- By Azn_fighter from Vancouver BC Canada on June 21, 2002
***** This card is just too good. So powerful! 1 Red = 3 damage . Too bad its max 4 per deck =| Have fun burning lil elves down . =)
  -- By Peter Cheong from Rosmead , California US of A! on June 23, 2002
***** No-brainer to END them all!!! Three damage for one mana with no drawbacks at instant speed, there is no END to this card's usefulness!! It's more bang for your buck than any card ever, it can kill creatures, it can scare your opponent (being at 7 is a lot worse than being at 10), and it can even kill them (oops my attack phase brings you down to 3 life... bzzt!), it's just unexplainable how great this card is! Many a great player could make a strong case for thus being the greatest card ever printed, and I would likely be one of them!
  -- By Nick from Tampa on October 30, 2004
***** if you play a red deck then you should have this card. incredibly good.
  -- By Anonymous from Zephyrhills, on November 06, 2005
***** this is a GREAT CARD just so you guys know ther is another card just like it in champions of kamigawia block (not the same name though) i forgot the name at the moment but its lava spike or something close to that
  -- By Anonymous from pa usa on March 19, 2006
*** good card but not the best a little over rated
  -- By Brian Maglicic from Niagara Falls Canada on April 19, 2006
***** CAN YOU SAY NO DRAWBACKS!!!!!!!
  -- By PHIL from THE HELL THRONE on May 11, 2006
***** this is way to good. with furnace of rath, you can kill almost any thing. replicate it and...
  -- By luca fregusy from nice, france on November 19, 2006
***** lava spike is basically the same thing, except u can only use it on target player. so this is better i guess. but both are great, just one red mana for 3 damage...get 4 lava spikes and 4 lightning bolts, that could be up to 24 damage to a player :)
  -- By mike undercofler from Hudson, NH USA on August 05, 2007
***** too bad they reprinted it like 5 or 6 times....but they havent since the early days
  -- By bonchnorm from sacramento, Ca usa on April 10, 2008
**** I actually prefer this over some goblins
  -- By Brian Rees from USAUSAUSAUSAUSAUSAUSAUSA on October 17, 2008
***** Simply amazing. And Lava Spike is a Sorcery too I think.
