1cmc sorcery dealing 3 damage to any target with a repeat mechanic: the opponent may pay {R}{R} to copy and retarget. Premier red burn spell and signature in spellslinger/storm shells that can chain copies together. The copy clause gives opponents mana decisions but rewards deck-building around triggers and copy engines, making it tier-1 across burn, spellslinger, and storm formats.
