Molten Collapse (Borderless) (The Lost Caverns of Ixalan) Medium Play Foil

Lava Answer for the Descent

Molten Collapse gives you a compact removal spell that reads like two answers in one pack. Molten Collapse is a sorcery that destroys a creature or planeswalker or else clears out tiny noncreature threats with mana value one or less. If you descended that turn you may choose both options instead, which makes this card a neat turnaround tool for teams that push into the depths and look to convert early advantage into board control.

From a practical deck building angle Molten Collapse fits well in aggressive midrange builds and Rakdos control shells. Use it to hit evasive creatures or remove a pesky planeswalker then pivot to wipe small artifacts or enchantments when needed. The borderless foil treatment pairs well with other Lost Caverns of Ixalan pieces and the printed wording matches your table play so there is no confusion when you resolve it under pressure.
