Magic Card of the Week: Lightning Bolt

So, you obsessively collect Magic cards, but you’re broke right now, and have to rely on just fantasizing about buying cards. What should you most want from the new Magic 2010 core set?

Well, Mind Spring does look like a good card, considering the tendency for blue decks to have about two-dozen Islands in play by mid game and nothing to play them on.

Runeclaw Bear is another tempting card. Just imagine that all “Grizzly Bears” deck you’ve always wanted to make.

Soldiers are pretty honourable, and Veteran Swordsmith looks to make them even more honourable. Could anything possibly top this?

Yes! Lightning Bolt, of course! Finally, I, err… I mean you, will have Lightning Bolts! That is, as soon as you can afford them.
