Lithomantic Barrage

Description

Lithomantic Barrage is an uncommon red sorcery card from the 2023 March of the Machine expansion, identified by card number 152. This spell is a strategic tool for red mages, costing a single mana to cast. Its primary effect deals one point of damage to a target creature or planeswalker, but it scales significantly if the target is white or blue, dealing five damage instead. This conditional power makes it a highly versatile removal option in formats where those colors are prevalent. The card’s design emphasizes its narrative connection to Nahiri, a powerful planeswalker known for her rage and stone-shattering abilities. As described in the flavor text, the spell represents the deadly, burning ruin caused by shattered hedrons. This thematic depth adds value for lore-focused collectors who appreciate the story woven into the Magic: The Gathering universe. The artwork by Viko Menezes complements this destructive theme, bringing the visual impact of Nahiri’s power to the card. For collectors, Lithomantic Barrage represents a key piece of the March of the Machine set. The card’s unique damage mechanic and thematic relevance make it a sought-after item for both gameplay and collection purposes. Whether you are building a deck focused on targeting specific colors or simply adding to your Magic: The Gathering collection, this card offers both strategic utility and narrative depth. The card’s uncommon rarity ensures it is accessible while still being a valuable addition to any Magic: The Gathering enthusiast's library.
