Explosive Derailment: Railburst Tactics Explosive Derailment is a compact red instant that rewards timing and demand for precision. Cast it for {2}{R} to put four points of damage on a creature when you need to clear a blocker or finish off a threat. The spree mechanic lets you pick extra costs so you can split objectives between creature removal and artifact destruction in the same turn.
In a Thunder Junction deck this card functions as flexible removal that punishes slow boards and artifacts that overstay their welcome. It fits comfortably into midrange red builds and utility sideboards. Play it on the stack after combat tricks resolve or save it for an opportune spree payment to swing a combat exchange in your favor.
