Quick Burn, Clean Finish
Flame-Blessed Bolt is a tight, efficient removal spell that gives red players a clean answer and tidy exile backup. Flame-Blessed Bolt deals 2 damage to target creature or planeswalker and if that permanent would die this turn, exile it instead. Play it on the stack to finish off a chump blocker, remove a threat before it grows out of reach, or punch through a planeswalker loyalty buffer at the end of combat.
From a Foundations Jumpstart perspective this bolt fits into aggressive decks and tempo plans with minimal fuss. The card name evokes a ritualized strike from a slayer captain and the printed text rewards precision play; use it to set up favorable blocks, deny graveyard recursion, or protect your board by eliminating recurring threats. Add this to your burn suite when you want reliable two damage with an exile clause that avoids future returns.
