Soul Burn
Oracle Text
Spend only black and/or red mana on X.
Soul Burn deals X damage to any target. You gain life equal to the damage dealt, but not more than the amount of {B} spent on X, the player's life total before the damage was dealt, the planeswalker's loyalty before the damage was dealt, or the creature's toughness.
Card Details
Mana CostSet
Character Background
Soul Burn is a classic Ice Age-style removal spell that doubles as a life swing, making it especially appealing in black-based control, midrange, or attrition decks that want to stabilize while pressuring the opponent’s resources. Because X can be paid only with black and/or red mana, it naturally fits Rakdos shells or monoblack lists splashing red, and the life you gain is capped by the black mana spent, so the spell rewards heavier black commitments. It can finish off a creature, chip a player, or remove a planeswalker while padding your own life total, which makes it excellent for tempo recovery after early trades. A useful deckbuilding tip is to pair it with mana acceleration or late-game ramp so X becomes threatening without overcommitting scarce colored mana. Cards that produce black mana directly, or lands that can repeatedly generate black, make Soul Burn far more efficient and scalable.
