Lore

Why it matters

First printed in *Odyssey*, Erratic Explosion represents the chaotic, high-risk nature of red magic by scaling damage based on the top card of a player's library. While the card is a common, this specific version from *Planechase Anthology* features Gary Ruddell’s distinct illustrative style, making it a functional and aesthetic piece for players who enjoy unpredictable, library-manipulation strategies.

Card face

What it does

Choose any target. Reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a nonland card. Erratic Explosion deals damage equal to that card's mana value to that permanent or player. Put the revealed cards on the bottom of your library in any order.
