About Bituminous Blast
Bituminous Blast, Instant, designed by Aleksi Briclot first released in Jun, 2002 in the set Magic Online Promos and was printed exactly in 13 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.02.
A deck that focuses on aggressive, midrange strategies with a mix of red and black cards would benefit from including Bituminous Blast, as it provides both removal and card advantage through Cascade. While there may be more efficient removal spells available, the potential for free spells and card advantage makes Bituminous Blast a strong consideration for decks looking to maintain pressure on the opponent while generating value. It should see play in decks that can take advantage of its versatility and potential for explosive plays.
Rules
03/19/21
A spell’s converted mana cost is determined only by its mana cost. Ignore any alternative costs, additional costs, cost increases, or cost reductions. For example, Bloodbraid Elf’s converted mana cost is always 4.
03/19/21
If the card has in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.
03/19/21
The converted mana cost of a modal double-faced card in exile is that of its front face. If the last card you exile is a modal double-faced card, you may only cast the back face if the resulting spell would also have a lesser converted mana cost than the spell with cascade.
03/19/21
When the cascade ability resolves, you must exile cards. The only optional part of the ability is whether or not you cast the last card exiled.
03/19/21
You exile the cards face up. All players will be able to see them.
04/18/17
The converted mana cost of a split card is determined by the combined mana cost of its two halves. If cascade allows you to cast a split card, you may cast either half but not both halves.
05/01/09
Cascade triggers when you cast the spell, meaning that it resolves before that spell. If you end up casting the exiled card, it will go on the stack above the spell with cascade.
05/01/09
If a spell with cascade is countered, the cascade ability will still resolve normally.
05/01/09
If you cast the last exiled card, you’re casting it as a spell. It can be countered. If that card has cascade, the new spell’s cascade ability will trigger, and you’ll repeat the process for the new spell.
