My Thoughts
I sort of wish these were downshifted for common so it could add to the pauper pool of cards. Mechanically, I am more interested in the reprint of Red Elemental Blast due to its ability to give Red access to unexpected counterspells! If I am not mistaken, this will be one of the first foil printing available for both Blasts. So, this will make it very interesting for EDH players. I really love the art and I can't wait to see it in foil! I am sure they will look super snazzy!
A shorter post than I am normally used to but I just am really excited for this reprint!
