Rites of Lightning

Description

The Rainbow parallel of Rites of Lightning stands out as a visually striking inclusion within the 2021 Elemental Legends (ELE) expansion for the Flesh and Blood trading card game. Designed by Alexander Gering, this card number ELE072 is distinguished by its iridescent foil treatment, offering collectors a vibrant alternative to the standard print run. For enthusiasts of the genre, this variant provides an aesthetic upgrade that enhances the visual identity of the set. As an Elemental Runeblade Action card, Rites of Lightning serves a specific mechanical role in gameplay, functioning as an attack with a cost of 1, a pitch of 3, and a power of 2 with 3 defense. The card’s interaction with the Lightning Fusion mechanic allows players to deal arcane damage to an opponent’s hero if the card was fused. Furthermore, if arcane damage has already been dealt during the turn, the card grants go again, enabling the player to continue their action phase. This dual utility makes it a functional piece for players looking to integrate arcane damage strategies into their decks. Collectors often seek out the Rainbow parallel for its rarity and eye-catching finish, making it a prized addition for those building comprehensive sets or focusing on high-tier variants. The 1st Edition designation adds another layer of interest for purists who prioritize earlier printings of the expansion. Whether you are completing the Elemental Legends set or looking to add a colorful accent to your collection, this parallel version of Rites of Lightning offers both mechanical depth and visual appeal.
