Lore & Trivia
Card Lore
Lightning Bolt is one of the five Alpha boons and one of Magic's most influential cards, so powerful that it led to the 'four of one card' rule and became the standard for burn spells. Though absent from core sets after Fourth Edition, its surprise reprinting in Magic 2010 demonstrated its enduring impact on the game.
