Provenance

Where it came from

Cleansing Nova was released in 2021 as part of the Innistrad: Midnight Hunt Commander set. This card is a functional reprint of a board wipe originally introduced in Core Set 2019, repurposed for the gothic horror aesthetic of the Innistrad plane. Its inclusion in a Commander-focused deck provided players with a flexible, high-impact removal spell that serves as a staple for white-aligned decks looking to reset the board state while preserving their own non-creature permanents.

The artwork was commissioned from illustrator Marta Nael, who is known for her vibrant, atmospheric fantasy style. Nael designed the card to capture the essence of a holy, purifying light descending upon a dark landscape, fitting the thematic struggle between the forces of order and the encroaching supernatural threats inherent to the world of Innistrad. The card was well-received by the player community for its balanced utility and thematic cohesion.
