"Find me cards equivalent to: Combustion Technique"

No official MTG card named Combustion Technique exists, but for a similar effect (red instant that deals scalable damage and/or exiles creatures), try:

  • Electrodominance — deals X damage to target creature or player, instant, red.
  • Lightning Axe — deals 5 damage to target creature, instant, red (requires discard).
  • Burn the Accursed — deals 5 damage, exiles if would die, but it's a sorcery.
  • Abrade — instant, deals 3 damage to creature.
  • Rending Flame — instant, 5 damage, exiles if would die.

Most scalable damage/exile effects in red are at sorcery speed or don't track Lessons in graveyard. Closest instant red exilers: Rending Flame and Electrodominance.

    Rules

  • Effects that allow you to cast a spell don't allow you to play a land.
  • If a spell has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.
  • If the target is dealt lethal damage this way, it will still be on the battlefield while you cast a spell from your hand. It won't die until after Electrodominance is finished resolving. If any of its abilities trigger while you cast that spell, those abilities will trigger but won't resolve until after the target has died.
  • If the target is illegal as Electrodominance tries to resolve, it won't resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won't get to cast a spell from your hand.
  • If you cast a spell "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs, such as kicker costs. If the spell has any mandatory additional costs, such as that of Bankrupt in Blood, those must be paid to cast the card.
  • You cast the spell during the resolution of Electrodominance. Ignore timing restrictions based on the spell's type.
