The take

It is the cleanest payoff Voltron decks have for going wide on power instead of evasion, and it converts stat padding into a table kill without anyone having to survive combat first.

Around $8 and still sitting outside the top 400 EDHREC staples, which tells you it is underused relative to what it does.

Plays well with

  • Fling

    Both cards ask the same question, how big can you get one creature's power, and Fling is the other blunt-force way to cash that power in for damage.

  • Increasing Vengeance

    Copying Chandra's Ignition doubles the power-to-damage conversion, which is exactly the kind of payoff a Kalamax or ritual-heavy red deck wants.

  • Viridian Longbow

    Anything that pushes raw power on your chosen creature, like an equipment stack, feeds directly into the damage total this spell deals out.

Chandra's Ignition Price Summary

The benchmark price (cheapest playable nonfoil) is $3.79, up 6.2% over 7 days, up 5.0% over 30 days, down 44.7% over 90 days.

Chandra's Ignition Rulings

  • Jun 22, 2015

    If the creature becomes an illegal target by the time Chandra's Ignition tries to resolve (perhaps because another player controls it or it's left the battlefield), Chandra's Ignition won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. No damage will be dealt.

  • Jun 22, 2015

    The creature is the source of the damage, not Chandra's Ignition. For example, Chandra's Ignition can have a white creature deal damage to a creature with protection from red.

  • Jun 22, 2015

    Use the power of the target creature as Chandra's Ignition resolves to determine how much damage it deals to each other creature and each opponent.
