Shiko and Narset, Unified
Storm rewards casting many spells; this Jeskai legend inverts the incentive and pays you for casting exactly a second one, then splits the reward along a single fork. If that second spell targets a permanent or player (a burn spell, a targeted removal effect, a spot bounce like the targeted mode of Cyclonic Rift), it gets copied with fresh targets you choose, so the second Lightning Bolt becomes a two-for-one and you decide where the extra piece lands. If the second spell has no legal target for the copy (a board wipe, a ramp spell, a mass draw effect, or a counterspell, which targets a spell on the stack rather than a permanent or player), the fallback fires and you draw a card instead. That refusal to whiff is the whole design: earlier copy-a-spell payoffs simply did nothing on non-targeted spells, while this one guarantees value either way, which pushes the deck toward a low, interactive curve built on a cantrip-then-payoff rhythm rather than a single haymaker. The 4/4 flying, vigilance body is deliberately modest for a four-mana legend, because the ability is the engine and the stats are just enough to pressure and hold the ground while the second-spell trigger accumulates.
