About Chain Reaction
Chain Reaction, Sorcery, designed by Trevor Claxton first released in Feb, 2010 in the set Worldwake and was printed exactly in 16 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of C$ 0.21.
A red control or midrange deck that focuses on board control and removal would benefit from including Chain Reaction in its strategy, as it can serve as a powerful board wipe against decks with many creatures. While Chain Reaction is a strong card in the right situation, there are better options available such as Blasphemous Act, which can deal 13 damage to each creature for just 1 R mana if the conditions are right. However, Chain Reaction can still see play as a budget alternative or as additional redundancy in a deck looking to maximize its board wipe potential.
