Meltdown: Clear the Board
Meltdown is a red sorcery from Modern Horizons 3 that uses X mana plus one red to answer an artifact heavy board. Destroy each artifact with mana value X or less. The X value scales with your investment, giving you a flexible sweeper that can wipe out small artifacts or hit a broader range if you have the mana to spare. In play, it forces opponents to reassess how they stack mana rocks and artifacts around a late game plan.
Printed with straightforward rules text, Meltdown rewards careful timing and mana management. The flavor text hints at the viashino culture and the chaos of a mana rig, lending a touch of lore without getting in the way of the spell’s function. This near mint copy fits into artifact hate strategies in modern or commander formats, offering a reliable answer when you need to swing the balance of power by removing relics from the field.
