Provenance

Where it came from

Magnus the Red was released in 2022 as part of the Warhammer 40,000 Commander set, a collaborative expansion between Wizards of the Coast and Games Workshop for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. This card represents a key figure from the Warhammer 40,000 lore, specifically the Primarch of the Thousand Sons Legion, designed to bring the complex narrative of the Horus Heresy into the mechanics of the Commander format.

The card features artwork by Anna Steinbauer, who rendered Magnus in his iconic crimson armor and cyclopean visage. The design focuses on his role as a powerful sorcerer, utilizing high-mana costs and spell-copying mechanics to evoke his mastery over the Warp. Within the set, it was received as a centerpiece for chaos-aligned decks, praised for capturing the flavor of the source material while offering a distinct strategic identity for players.
