What of red had a single card that dealt damage AND destroyed some gems?

Both these effects are comparatively weak (Beacon Bolt being a notable exception), so combining the two (without requiring a target) might make for a decent spell.

Just spitballin'.

    Red does have a few cards that could work (land destruction/mana gain + damage).
    Most of them seem to have been implemented literally (destroy a land support) but making them destroy gems instead would definitely make them more usable.

    Of course gem destruction is one of the most randomly powerful abilities in the game (see:  Koth, Demolish, Harness, Spire), so lets not go crazy with it.  But more would definitely be nice.
