Inferno Jet deals 6 damage to a player for six mana at sorcery speed — that ratio is bad. There are cheaper, more flexible burn spells available in every format where this is legal, and the discard rider doesn't come close to making up the difference.
Format Analysis
Where it lives, where it can’t
| Format | Verdict |
|---|---|
| commander | legal |
| legacy | legal |
| modern | legal |
| pioneer | legal |
| standard | not legal |
| vintage | legal |
| pauper | not legal |
| oathbreaker | legal |
Inferno Jet is legal in Commander, Legacy, Modern, Pioneer, Vintage, and Oathbreaker, but legal doesn't mean playable. In Commander, six mana for 6 damage to one player is nowhere near enough to close a game against three opponents, and sorcery speed means it can't even act as a combat trick or disruption piece. Competitive formats like Legacy, Modern, and Vintage have efficient burn at one or two mana that makes Inferno Jet unplayable in any serious list. Oathbreaker's smaller starting life totals give it the best theoretical home, but even there the cost-to-damage ratio lags behind better options.

Price Context
Current price
$0.14 bulk tier
At $0.14, Inferno Jet sits firmly in bulk territory, and the price reflects the card's power level accurately. Don't expect it to appreciate — bulk burn with no competitive application has nowhere to go.
