Provenance

Where it came from

The Summoning Station was released in 2004 as part of the Fifth Dawn expansion, the final set in the Mirrodin block for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The set's narrative centered on the metallic world of Mirrodin and its artificial inhabitants, with the Station representing the mechanical, artifact-focused aesthetic that defined the block's gameplay mechanics and world-building.

The card was illustrated by the artist Mark Zug, who provided a visceral, industrial interpretation of a device capable of generating construct tokens. Upon its release, the card became a notable component in artifact-synergy decks, valued by players for its ability to untap itself and generate board presence, reflecting the technical complexity that Wizards of the Coast aimed to explore within the Fifth Dawn artifact cycle.
