I can't believe nobody has mentioned {Chain Lightning}? {Shard Volley} is also pretty sweet! One of my all time favs has to be {Goblin Grenade} though.

{Searing Blood},  {Searing Blaze},  {Searing Spear} and  {Searing Rays}.... Oh and  {Shock}

{Searing Blood} is situationally good. {Searing Spear} isn't as good as {Skullcrack}. {Shock} is strictly worse than {Lightning Bolt}.

All solid picks. Sadly {Lightning Bolt} just dominates the one drop slot.

I'm quite partial to {banefire} myself as an x spell.

In terms of {X} spells {Banefire} wins by a mile!!

Umm...no. {Skullcrack} can't hit creatures and its ability of not gaining life is only good against {Sphinx's Revelation}.

Also damage can't be prevented which kinda helps but I'm with you I much prefer {Searing Spear}

What about good Ol {fireball}!

{Comet Storm} is typically better.
Actually no. They both do the same thing and fireball costs less to cast

Fireballs a sorcery ... Comet is instant

Fireball, x = 6 with an extra target costs 8 mana, and can deal 6 total damage to 2 targets.

Comet storm, x = 5 kicked once, costs 8 mana and will deal 5 damage to one target and 5 damage to another.

It's also important to note that fireball has to split that damage equally among its targets. So although it might be 6 total damage to two targets, it must be 3 and 3.

Did not catch that, thank you :)

Mr_Fahrenheit

No problem. It took about two months of playing it wrong for me to catch it too lol
