Explosive Shot deals 4 damage to target creature.
Mox strategy
Explosive Shot is a low-cost, efficient removal spell dealing 4 damage to a single creature, excelling at early-to-mid game creature removal. It synergizes well with decks running burn spells and red aggro or midrange strategies that need to clear blockers. As a sorcery, it supports proactive board control but lacks instant-speed interaction. Best used for straightforward creature removal in aggressive red builds or as a sideboard option against creature-heavy decks.
