Lightning Boltremoval$2.13Classic efficient red direct damage to any target, but with a much higher damage rate. It fills the same cheap removal/burn role while being strictly more efficient at one mana.Incinerateremoval$0.30A close red burn spell that can go to any target creature and also prevents regeneration. It is in the same low-cost direct-damage space, though it is more restrictive than Direct Current.Shockremoval$0.30Very similar small burn spell that deals 2 damage to any target, matching Direct Current’s damage output exactly at a much lower cost. It lacks jump-start, but is a clean budget alternative.Play with Fireremoval$0.22Efficient 2-damage burn to any target with a scry rider if the target dies or is a player. It occupies the same flexible red removal slot at a lower mana cost.Strangleremoval$0.11One mana red removal that deals 3 damage to target creature or planeswalker, serving the same cheap interaction role. It is narrower than Direct Current but generally more efficient in creature-heavy metas.Abraderemoval$0.32Versatile red interaction spell that can either remove a small creature or destroy an artifact. It is a common upgrade in the same mana range because it provides more utility than a simple 2-damage spell.Volcanic Hammerremoval$0.12Straightforward red burn that deals 3 damage to any target, making it a close cousin to Direct Current in role and color. It costs the same mana but offers a stronger baseline effect without recursion.Wild Slashremoval$0.20Efficient red instant burn that deals 2 damage to any target and can prevent damage prevention. It is a near-functional analogue to the damage mode of Direct Current at a lower cost.
