Rift Bolt
Oracle Text
Rift Bolt deals 3 damage to any target.
Suspend 1—{R} (Rather than cast this card from your hand, you may pay {R} and exile it with a time counter on it. At the beginning of your upkeep, remove a time counter. When the last is removed, you may cast it without paying its mana cost.)
Card Details
Mana CostCharacter Background
Rift Bolt is a deceptively efficient spell that fits best in aggressive red decks, especially tempo and burn strategies that want to keep pressure on while spending as little mana as possible. On turn one, suspend for {R} and you effectively bank three damage for later, letting you curve out with creatures or other burn while the Bolt waits like a delayed strike from a volatile rift. That delay can actually be an advantage: it punishes slow draws, clears a blocker, or finishes an opponent after combat without tying up your main phase. In deckbuilding, it pairs naturally with other low-cost burn such as Lava Spike, Lightning Bolt, and Skewer the Critics, and it plays well with prowess creatures or effects that care about spells being cast. Because the damage can hit any target, it also offers flexibility against planeswalkers or utility creatures, making it a simple but highly reliable staple for red decks that want reach and momentum.
