Seismic Vore

the fact is, rite of flame is a bad dark ritual, a dark ritual, then a good dark ritual, and then an amazing dark ritual, all for the price of one red mana. what does this provide to vore? an unbelievable synergy. not only does it provide turn two stone rains and compulsive researches, it gives vore +1 +1 and allows you to chain spells together with the other breakout hit of the deck: seismic spike. seismic spike is not just a crappy replacement for pillage or demolish. with rite of flame you're constantly doing more than one thing per turn with your mana, beyond a simple stone rain, it's now rite of flame, stone rain, sleight of hand, rite of flame magnivore. these are not imaginary god hands, these are actual plays the deck makes.
