Where it came from
Hundred-Talon Strike was released in 2005 as part of the Betrayers of Kamigawa expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The card draws heavily from the set's overarching theme of Japanese folklore and the ongoing spirit war within the Kamigawa plane. It was designed to showcase the 'bushido' keyword, a mechanic intended to represent the martial discipline and honor of the samurai warriors as they engaged in combat.
The card’s illustration was created by artist Christopher Rush, a legendary figure in Magic’s early history known for his distinct, expressive style. Rush was tasked with visually capturing the swift, overwhelming motion of the titular strike. The artwork features a dynamic composition that emphasizes the lethal precision associated with the samurai archetype, fitting seamlessly into the set's grounded, high-fantasy aesthetic that drew significant inspiration from historical shogunate-era Japan.
