Provenance

Where it came from

Starstorm was released as part of the Warhammer 40,000 Commander set for Magic: The Gathering, which launched in October 2022. This crossover product, part of the Universes Beyond line, was designed to integrate the grimdark lore and aesthetic of Games Workshop's iconic tabletop wargame into the mechanics of the Magic: The Gathering card game, offering players themed decks centered around factions like the Tyranids and the Imperium of Man.

The card features artwork by artist Jason A. Engle, who leaned into the dramatic, high-impact visual style characteristic of the Warhammer 40,000 universe. The card is a reprint of a classic red sorcery spell, retooled to fit the thematic framing of the set. Upon release, it was well-received by both Magic players and Warhammer enthusiasts for its utility in Commander format gameplay and its faithful representation of the source material's intense, apocalyptic flavor.
