Ghostfire Slice: Quick Burn
Ghostfire Slice is a lean, practical instant from Modern Horizons 3. With Devoid it bears no color, which keeps it flexible in red's toolbox and lets it slip through color specific counters. The base mana cost is {2}{R}, and if an opponent controls a multicolored permanent the spell costs 2 less to cast, enabling timely reach. Ghostfire Slice deals 4 damage to any target, giving you removal or a finishing blow on the right window. The speed and exact target scope make it a reliable option in tempo or burn plans.
In play, this card rewards careful timing and resource management. The Near Mint Foil finish catches the light as the spell travels from hand to graveyard, a small visual cue for the damage about to land. Flavor text nods to unseen forces slipping through shadows, mirroring how a well placed burn spell can erase plans before they fully take shape.
