Lightning Overload (3) fits best in a Wizard deck—particularly Iyslander or Kano builds—that consistently play instants on the opponent’s turn and can reliably trigger **Starfall** to generate Lightning Flow tokens, making it more than just a 2‑damage arcane ping. It benefits tempo‑oriented or combo‑leaning lists that value incremental arcane pressure and token generation, especially in metagames where arcane damage is hard to prevent. However, compared to staples like **Aether Icevein**, **Emeritus Scolding**, **Aether Wildfire**, or Kano-specific combo pieces such as **Blazing Aether**, Lightning Overload is generally lower impact, as 2 arcane for 1 resource is below rate unless the Lightning Flow token provides strong synergy in your specific build. It could see play in niche Lightning/Starfall synergy decks or limited formats, but in optimized Constructed Wizard lists, there are typically more efficient or higher-ceiling options available.
