It’s a functional alternative for decks wanting removal stapled to a body.DreadboreremovalBudget$0.42A clean Rakdos removal spell that answers creatures or planeswalkers at a similar mana investment. It lacks cascade and instant speed, but serves the same midgame spot removal role.TerminateremovalBudget$0.43A classic efficient black-red instant removal spell that kills most creatures outright. It’s cheaper and more efficient, though it doesn’t provide cascade value.BedevilremovalBudget$0.45Broad Rakdos removal that can hit creatures, artifacts, or planeswalkers. It occupies the same flexible midrange removal slot with a slightly higher mana cost but wider targeting range.Kolaghan's CommandutilityBudget$0.43This is a highly flexible black-red instant that often creates card advantage while interacting with the board. It’s not direct damage-based removal, but it similarly gives a strong tempo swing at instant speed.Violent OutburstutilityBudget$0.36This is one of the closest cascade analogues in the same color pair, giving you a cheap instant-speed cascade spell. It doesn’t remove a creature directly, but it serves the same cascade-centric play pattern.Ardent Pleautility$1.57Another cascade spell that provides a similar cascade payoff style, though it is in different colors and is a permanent. It’s useful if you want the cascading function more than the removal body.Light Up the Stagecard_drawBudget$0.19Not removal, but it mirrors Bituminous Blast’s value-generating play pattern by replacing itself with extra cards.
